Website Markdown question
I'm working on some content for the new website. It's very easy to work
with by the way.
I have a question about the markdown directives. It seems that some of
the directives I want to use are simply ignored during the render
process. For example, I tried to use the _underscore_ method of
emphasis, but the rendered output simply copied the underscores and
didn't make any change to the font. Ditto the __double underscore__. I
also tried to use a block-quote but found that the ">" symbols were
simply absorbed with no other effect on my text paragraph.
Am I doing something wrong or is there a set of unsupported directives?
Thanks,
-Ted

Ted, thanks for finding this. I've now made underscores work as
expected, and I've added the needed stylesheet rules for blockquotes.

Yes, the de facto standard is linked from the "Markdown syntax"
section of the readme:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/qpid/site/README
-> http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/syntax
I'll add a link to the implementation as well so you can find out
precisely what it's doing.

Is there/can we add a pointer on the site to the version of markdown syntax used?

I think I know what causes this, so I figure can make the underscores
behave as expected. I'll tell you what I find.

After further investigation, I see that _underscore_ is not rendered
into html, however *asterisks* are.
On the other hand, block quotes are rendered into html so this is
probably a style-sheet problem because block quotes don't look any
different than normal paragraphs.
