in reply to Pod2Html Problem Redux


Replacing the blank line with a space and a newline will get it to parse properly. However, it isn't really a blank line then. :-(

There is an also an alternative version of Pod::HTML called Marek::Pod::HTML. This was intended as a direct replacement for Pod::HTML.

I read about this a while ago on clpm but haven't tried it.

    John,

    I found Marek::Pod::Html yesterday, but I've not had time to give it a go—sometimes playing with bugs is more interesting than the project at hand! My plan is to take Html.pm apart and see what makes it tick, wrong that is. In the mean time I've slapped a pre/post(whatever) processor on the problem which replaces \n\n with something(anything) before I hand it off to Pod2Html. Looking ahead, I probably would have had to add such a mechanism anyway—parsing is mostly just another way of spelling problem...
