Tools for processing the Markdown language.
To convert markdown text into HTML, use the makeHTML() function:
use('markdown');
...
var text = 'Markdown *rocks*.';
var html = markdown.makeHTML(text);
The Wysiwym Markdown Editor is a simple, lightweight HTML editor for blog comments, forum posts, and basic content management.
To install the editor, include wmd.js right before your closing
<body> tag:
<script type="text/javascript"
src="http://static.akshell.com/code/release/markdown/wmd/wmd.js">
</script>
By default, WMD will turn the first textarea on your page into an
editor. You can modify this behavior with the wmd-ignore class,
described below.
Paste this code wherever you want your live preview to appear:
<div class="wmd-preview"></div>
You can mix "wmd-preview" with your own class names to make applying CSS easier.
Example:
<div class="myClass <span class="highlight">wmd-preview</span>" id="myId"></div>
You can use the following class names to control WMD's auto-start behavior:
wmd-ignore - Add to a textarea to prevent WMD from turning it into
an editor.
wmd-preview - Add to a div to turn show a live preview.
wmd-output - Add to a textarea or div to turn show the HTML output.
