WikiBugs/UnexpectedHRTagsInPreFormattedText

Just noticed this... but it looks like groups of

---

's, as used for an HR tag in wiki markup get interpretted improperly. I would think that starting a line with a space, to mark it as preformatted would override this interpretation.

Or should I just put nowiki tags around them? That works, I just didn't expect to need it in this context.

This is expected behaviour. MeatBall:WikiSyntax processing continues in preformatted text that is spaced out from the margin. To disable syntax processing in preformated text, surround the text in <pre></pre> tags instead. -- SunirShah

I agree with Sunir's message. The difference between starting-space preformatting and a real "pre" tag is often confusing, but sometimes it is useful to combine wiki formatting with a "preformatted" look. --CliffordAdams

IMHO, four dashes should only make a hr tag if they occur at the beginning of a line or maybe allow some spaces before them and not in the middle of a line:

line:

---

line with leading space:

should be no line (four dashes somewhere in the middle of a line):

this is the start of the line, then the dashes (

---

) and blah blah blah
