Re: [Python-markdown-discuss] Nested emph and strong

[Yuri T. <qar...@gm...>]

Yes, this is a known bug.  Basically, nested tags don't work properly.
 This cannot be fixed in any easy way, because it has to do with the
combination of using regular expression and a dom tree to represent
half-processed text.  Basically, once you convert a piece of text into
a dom tree you can't runregular expressions over it.  I've been toying
with an idea of writing a hybrid tree/string structure that would
support a subset of RE, but haven't gotten around to it.  Myself, I
find nested markdown tags largely unnecessary, since once you get
there, using actual HTML tags makes it more readable.  HTML tags do
nest properly, your original example could be marked up as <b>(for all
my *cookies*, I love)</b>, i.e. leaving MD inside by using HTML for
the outside tag.
