Description Kurt McKee 2005-04-10 02:21:31 UTC 
Version details: 1.3.2

LiveJournal and Wordpress claim XHTML 1.0 Transitional compliance, but Blogger
claims XHTML 1.0 Strict. In those cases, the lack of an </li> tag being
generated immediately encourages broken tags. However, since Blogger is
supported and wants XHTML 1.0 Strict, bold and italics should be handled as
"strong" and "em".

I haven't fixed underline or strike, because that would require embedding a
longer string using <span style=...>, and I don't know what that would do to a
user's mind.

Thanks, I've committed this to CVS.  Feel free to expriment with XHTML tags for
other formatting functions--hopefully there will soon be a WYSIWYG editor
component for people who truly don't care about the markup, allowing us to be as
strict as we like about standards compliance.
