[Python-markdown-discuss] Sections and other styling options

[Igor G. <i....@br...>]

Hi folks,

I'm working with a CMS which uses (python) Markdown as basis
and I'm a little unhappy with the styling option that it offers.

We end up with a

<div id="content">
 $mardowntext
</div>

And that is quite difficult to style sensibly.

Is there any sane way -- other than wrapping a section with divs

<div class="section">
# Header # {#header1}
Some text here
</div>

to achieve such an effect?
I've been contemplating to add an extension for that purpose,
which creates such section and subsection class divs, but my
Python-fu is quite poor.

Is anyone aware of such a thing already in existence? Or a
sensible alternative? Or is putting HTML content the only
sensible solution?

Thank you for your feedback.

So long,
i

Igor,

The nature of the Markdown Syntax pretty much leaves raw html as your
only option to _wrap_ sections of a document.

However, if you want to add styling hooks to the various parts of the
document (say individual paragraphs), you might want to check out the
new attr_list extension [1], available in version 2.1.0.alpha [2].

Interesting. Hope you don't mind, but I just added this to the list of
third party extensions.
