| Description: | Headingmode definition buggy output. The html is wrong for the output, some tags are transformed in html special chars. |
| Extension / Version: | DPL / 1.5.0 |
| Type / Status: | Bug / answered |
Problem
To reproduce:
<DPL> category=African Union member states ordermethod=category,title headingmode=definition </DPL>
Reply
Thanks for bringing this up. Adding "debug=5" shows the html code:
{{Extension DPL}}<DL><DT>[[:Category:African_Union_member_states|African Union member states]]</DT><DD><UL><LI>[[Cameroon|Cameroon]]</LI><LI>[[Nigeria|Nigeria]]</LI><LI>[[Somalia|Somalia]]</LI><LI>[[Sudan|Sudan]]</LI></UL></DD></DL>
To me this seems to be syntactically correct. Experimenting a little showed the following:
<DL><DT>a term</DT><DD>its definition</DD></DL>
produces:
- a term
- its definition
whereas
<DL><DT>a term<DD>its definition</DL>
produces:
- a term
- its definition
So it seems that I would have to produce syntactically incorrect html code to get it through the wiki parser. Very strange. Would you like to bring that up for mediawiki developers?
As an alternative I could generate wiki syntax
;[[:Nigunda]]:its definition
This should also work:
- Nigunda
- its definition
You could easily change this in your DPL code (lines 3019..3024) but it would prevent you from using hlistattr. Is that relevant for headingmode=definition? If not I could make the changes and publish ..
Please look at line 2988. DOes it make sense to add DD and DL here ?
