The examples on this page -are written in a before/after style, showing example syntax and the -HTML output produced by Markdown. - -It's also helpful to simply try Markdown out; the [Dingus] [d] is a -web application that allows you type your own Markdown-formatted text -and translate it to XHTML. - -**Note:** This document is itself written using Markdown; you -can [see the source for it by adding '.text' to the URL] [src]. - - [s]: /projects/markdown/syntax "Markdown Syntax" - [d]: /projects/markdown/dingus "Markdown Dingus" - [src]: /projects/markdown/basics.text - - -## Paragraphs, Headers, Blockquotes ## - -A paragraph is simply one or more consecutive lines of text, separated -by one or more blank lines. (A blank line is any line that looks like a -blank line -- a line containing nothing spaces or tabs is considered -blank.) Normal paragraphs should not be intended with spaces or tabs. - -Markdown offers two styles of headers: *Setext* and *atx*. -Setext-style headers for `<h1>` and `<h2>` are created by -"underlining" with equal signs (`=`) and hyphens (`-`), respectively. -To create an atx-style header, you put 1-6 hash marks (`#`) at the -beginning of the line -- the number of hashes equals the resulting -HTML header level. - -Blockquotes are indicated using email-style '`>`' angle brackets. - -Markdown: - - A First Level Header - ==================== - - A Second Level Header - --------------------- - - Now is the time for all good men to come to - the aid of their country.

These three markers are -interchangable; this: - - * Candy. - * Gum. - * Booze. - -this: - - + Candy. - + Gum. - + Booze. - -and this: - - - Candy. - - Gum. - - Booze. - -all produce the same output: - - <ul> - <li>Candy.</li> - <li>Gum.</li> - <li>Booze.</li> - </ul> - -Ordered (numbered) lists use regular numbers, followed by periods, as -list markers: - - 1. Red - 2. Green - 3. Blue - -Output: - - <ol> - <li>Red</li> - <li>Green</li> - <li>Blue</li> - </ol> - -If you put blank lines between items, you'll get `<p>` tags for the -list item text. You can create multi-paragraph list items by indenting -the paragraphs by 4 spaces or 1 tab: - - * A list item. - - With multiple paragraphs. - - * Another item in the list. - -Output: - - <ul> - <li><p>A list item.</p> - <p>With multiple paragraphs.</p></li> - <li><p>Another item in the list.</p></li> - </ul> - - - -### Links ### - -Markdown supports two styles for creating links: *inline* and -*reference*. With both styles, you use square brackets to delimit the -text you want to turn into a link. - -Inline-style links use parentheses immediately after the link text. -For example: - - This is an [example link](http://example.com/). - -Output: - - <p>This is an <a href="http://example.com/"> - example link</a>.</p> - -Optionally, you may include a title attribute in the parentheses: - - This is an [example link](http://example.com/ "With a Title"). - -Output: - - <p>This is an <a href="http://example.com/" title="With a Title"> - example link</a>.</p> - -Reference-style links allow you to refer to your links by names, which -you define elsewhere in your document: - - I get 10 times more traffic from [Google][1] than from - [Yahoo][2] or [MSN][3]. - - [1]: http://google.com/ "Google" - [2]: http://search.yahoo.com/ "Yahoo Search" - [3]: http://search.msn.com/ "MSN Search" - -Output: - - <p>I get 10 times more traffic from <a href="http://google.com/" - title="Google">Google</a> than from <a href="http://search.yahoo.com/" - title="Yahoo Search">Yahoo</a> or <a href="http://search.msn.com/" - title="MSN Search">MSN</a>.</p> - -The title attribute is optional. Link names may contain letters, -numbers and spaces, but are *not* case sensitive: - - I start my morning with a cup of coffee and - [The New York Times][NY Times]. - - [ny times]: http://www.nytimes.com/ - -Output: - - <p>I start my morning with a cup of coffee and - <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/">The New York Times</a>.</p> - - -### Images ### - -Image syntax is very much like link syntax. - -Inline (titles are optional): - -  - -Reference-style: - - ![alt text][id] - - [id]: /path/to/img.jpg "Title" - -Both of the above examples produce the same output: - - <img src="/path/to/img.jpg" alt="alt text" title="Title" /> - - - -### Code ### - -In a regular paragraph, you can create code span by wrapping text in -backtick quotes. Any ampersands (`&`) and angle brackets (`<` or -`>`) will automatically be translated into HTML entities. This makes -it easy to use Markdown to write about HTML example code: - - I strongly recommend against using any `<blink>` tags. - - I wish SmartyPants used named entities like `—` - instead of decimal-encoded entites like `—`. - -Output: - - <p>I strongly recommend against using any - <code><blink></code> tags.</p> - - <p>I wish SmartyPants used named entities like - <code>&mdash;</code> instead of decimal-encoded - entites like <code>&#8212;</code>.</p> - - -To specify an entire block of pre-formatted code, indent every line of -the block by 4 spaces or 1 tab. Just like with code spans, `&`, `<`, -and `>` characters will be escaped automatically. - -Markdown: - - If you want your page to validate under XHTML 1.0 Strict, - you've got to put paragraph tags in your blockquotes: - - <blockquote> - <p>For example.</p> - </blockquote> - -Output: - - <p>If you want your page to validate under XHTML 1.0 Strict, - you've got to put paragraph tags in your blockquotes:</p> - - <pre><code><blockquote> - <p>For example.</p> - </blockquote> - </code></pre> |
