Re: [Python-markdown-discuss] Bug report concerning tables

[Waylan L. <wa...@gm...>]

Btw, before you spend your time working on this, I just whipped one
up. I still have a few edge cases to work out, but I think I'll be
replacing the existing tables extension once I do.

One thing that almost had me stumped is ElementTree's output for empty
cells. I'm getting ``<td />`` rather than ``<td></td>``. If I give all
empty cells a single space, then I get ``<td> </td>``, but that feels
like a dirty hack and doesn't match PHP's output either. If I switch
``output_format='HTML4'``, then I get the desired ``<td></td>``. As it
turns out, the XHTML output (``<td />``) is valid XHTML (I just
checked), so I guess I'll leave it.
