Skeeve,

Poorly displayed definition lists suspect
The end tag may be missing
<dl> <dt>Poorly displayed definition lists suspect</dt> <dd>The end tag may be missing</dd> </dl>
Update: Added html tags to illustrate

    That would have been easy.

    But see for yourself. Here is the code, directly pasted from my post

    /^"((?:[^"\\]|\\.)*)"$/$1/

    ^"
    matches your field's quotechar at the start of the field
    (...)
    will "remember" what was matched inside the quotes
    (?:...)*
    This will match anything in place of the ... and tells the parser that it may apear as often as possible. Even zero times
    [^"\\]
    will match any character but " and \
    |
    is an alternative. Either the left or the right part has to match
    \\.
    Will match any "escaped" character
    "$
    again your quotechar but now at the end
      Skeeve,
      That is a good catch. When I posted the comment it was to test your question. This behaviour is surprising. While replying to you, I can see that the definition list is displayed fine. This is really strange.
      Strange
      Definition list behaviour when viewed within replies.
