Talk.Creole 1.0 Test Cases

You have to copy the RAW content (not: rendered content) of the above pre section to your creole implementation test page: no, because the ~}}} to escape the end marker of the pre block is not Creole. BTW, in the previous sentence, I've tried to write tilde-triplerightbrace in nowiki (which should be fine in Creole) but the tilde isn't rendered...

Is the test case for images correct? It uses:

[{ImagePro src='Red-Flower.jpg' caption='here is a red flower' }]

But based on the description in other pages it seems it should be:

{{Red-Flower.jpg|here is a red flower}}

Preformatted nowiki doesn't work in this wiki, which prevents showing what the test cases should look like even by using a mixed wikicreole/creole markup. Image, header and table markup are examples of such markup. A big warning should be displayed at the top of the page.

What about moving the testcases to a wiki which renders it correctly, until we have a proper renderer here?

I think it would be helpful. I don't own one, unfortunately... I just have a plain web site with a single sandbox page for NME.

Table headings#

Are || and |= both valid markups for table headings in Creole? Creole1.0 lists just |=.

-- IvanFomichev, 2008-04-01

Only |=. This wiki renders || correctly because it has a Mixed Mode renderer, which allows the JSPWiki markup for table headings as well.

URI/Italics Ambiguity#

There is a statement in the test page that seems to be inaccurate:

Note: the implementation should not render foo://bar as italic! It's not enough to
protect http://bar from being rendered as italic, because you can have much more
protocols, for example jdbc://bar and ftp://file.

The foo:// should start an italic block, according to the spec (and it is rendered correctly in this wiki).

-- StephenDay, 2007-Oct-18

The spec doesn't say, that only http:// and ftp:// should be treated as valid URIs. What about https://www.example.org? sftp://sftp.example.org? telnet:username:password@example.org? irc:irc.example.org?

-- IvanFomichev, 2008-04-02

Maybe the next version of Creole should be more clear about this. I personally think that rendering https://www.example.org non-italic is fine (even though the spec doesn't say), while doing the same with fruit://apple// or fruit://apple, wouldn't be right.

Anyhow, this discussion should probably be moved over to Italics And Url Ambiguity, where a lot has been said already.
