Getting the Gist of Markdown's Formatting Syntax | |
------------------------------------------------ | |
This page offers a brief overview of what it's like to use Markdown. | |
The [syntax page] [s] provides complete, detailed documentation for | |
every feature, but Markdown should be very easy to pick up simply by | |
looking at a few examples of it in action. 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]. | |

## 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 but spaces or tabs is | |
considered blank.) Normal paragraphs should not be indented 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. This is just a | |
regular paragraph. | |
The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy | |
dog's back. | |
### Header 3 | |
> This is a blockquote. | |
> | |
> This is the second paragraph in the blockquote. | |
> | |
> ## This is an H2 in a blockquote | |
Output: | |
<h1>A First Level Header</h1> | |
<h2>A Second Level Header</h2> | |
<p>Now is the time for all good men to come to | |
the aid of their country. This is just a | |
regular paragraph.</p> | |
<p>The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy | |
dog's back.</p> | |
<h3>Header 3</h3> | |
<blockquote> | |
<p>This is a blockquote.</p> | |
<p>This is the second paragraph in the blockquote.</p> | |
<h2>This is an H2 in a blockquote</h2> | |
</blockquote> | |
### Phrase Emphasis ### | |
Markdown uses asterisks and underscores to indicate spans of emphasis. | |
Markdown: | |
Some of these words *are emphasized*. | |
Some of these words _are emphasized also_. | |
Use two asterisks for **strong emphasis**. | |
Or, if you prefer, __use two underscores instead__. | |
Output: | |
<p>Some of these words <em>are emphasized</em>. | |
Some of these words <em>are emphasized also</em>.</p> | |
<p>Use two asterisks for <strong>strong emphasis</strong>. | |
Or, if you prefer, <strong>use two underscores instead</strong>.</p> | |
## Lists ## | |
Unordered (bulleted) lists use asterisks, pluses, and hyphens (`*`, | |
`+`, and `-`) as list markers. 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 `&mdash;` | |
instead of decimal-encoded entites like `&#8212;`. | |
Output: | |
<p>I strongly recommend against using any | |
<code>&lt;blink&gt;</code> tags.</p> | |
<p>I wish SmartyPants used named entities like | |
<code>&amp;mdash;</code> instead of decimal-encoded | |
entites like <code>&amp;#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>&lt;blockquote&gt; | |
&lt;p&gt;For example.&lt;/p&gt; | |
&lt;/blockquote&gt; | |
</code></pre> | |
