G'day Athanasius,

I first came across this a long time ago and decided that it was a feature to allow this sort of markup in paragraph text (without adding any [download] links): 

<p>
... wrap in <c><code>...</code></c> or <code><c>...</c></code> tags.
</p>

which renders as:

... wrap in <code>...</code> or <c>...</c> tags.

Now that you've fixed "Regex string trimming help", I can't see the effect there; however, I have noted it from time to time. I think an update to the doco would be useful. I also think that, if these tags are embedded in paragraph text, they should be subject to the same line-wrapping policy as the rest of the paragraph.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post, it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":


  • Posts are HTML formatted. Put <p> </p> tags around your paragraphs. Put <code> </code> tags around your code and data!
  • Titles consisting of a single word are discouraged, and in most cases are disallowed outright.
  • Read Where should I post X? if you're not absolutely sure you're posting in the right place.
  • Please read these before you post! —
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags:
    a, abbr, b, big, blockquote, br, caption, center, col, colgroup, dd, del, details, div, dl, dt, em, font, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, hr, i, ins, li, ol, p, pre, readmore, small, span, spoiler, strike, strong, sub, summary, sup, table, tbody, td, tfoot, th, thead, tr, tt, u, ul, wbr
  • You may need to use entities for some characters, as follows. (Exception: Within code tags, you can put the characters literally.)
            For:     Use:
    & &amp;
    < &lt;
    > &gt;
    [ &#91;
    ] &#93;
