iOS chooses to render a number of Unicode entities,
including '↩', as big colorful emoji. This can be
defeated by appending Unicode
VARIATION SELECTOR-15'/'VARIATION SELECTOR-16'.
So we now append this character when escaping
strings, for both '↩' and '↔'.
If other characters prove problematic, they can
simply be added to needsVariationSelector.
Closes#5469.
This improves on the original fix to #5285 by preventing
other mixed lists (lists with a mix of Plain and Para
elements) that were allowed given the original fix.
With this change, autolinks are parsed as Links with
the `uri` class. (The same is true for bare links, if
the `autolink_bare_uris` extension is enabled.) Email
autolinks are parsed as Links with the `email` class.
This allows the distinction to be represented in the
URI.
Formerly the `uri` class was added to autolinks by
the HTML writer, but it had to guess what was an autolink
and could not distinguish `[http://example.com](http://example.com)`
from `<http://example.com>`. It also incorrectly recognized
`[pandoc](pandoc)` as an autolink. Now the HTML writer
simply passes through the `uri` attribute if it is present,
but does not add anything.
The Textile writer has been modified so that the `uri`
class is not explicitly added for autolinks, even if it
is present.
Closes#4913.
instead of relying on CSS. Closes#4162. HTML-based templates have had
the custom CSS for div.line-block removed. Those maintaining custom
templates will want to remove this too.
We still enclose line blocks in a div with class line-block.
* Move as much as possible to the CSS in the template.
* Ensure that all the HTML-based templates (including epub)
contain the CSS for columns.
* Columns default to 50% width unless they are given a width
attribute.
Closes#4028.
The structure expected is:
<div class="columns">
<div class="column" width="40%">
contents...
</div>
<div class="column" width="60%">
contents...
</div>
</div>
Support has been added for beamer and all HTML slide formats.
Closes#1710.
Note: later we could add a more elegant way to create
this structure in Markdown than to use raw HTML div elements.
This would come for free with a "native div syntax" (#168).
Or we could devise something specific to slides
This is now the default for pandoc's Markdown.
It allows whitespace between the two parts of a
reference link: e.g.
[a] [b]
[b]: url
This is now forbidden by default.
Closes#2602.
We now issue `<div class="line-block">` and include a
default definition for `line-block` in the default
templates, instead of hard-coding a `style` on the
div.
Closes#1623.
All templates now include `code{white-space: pre-wrap}`
and CSS for `q` if `--html-q-tags` is used.
Previously some templates had `pre` and others `pre-wrap`;
the `q` styles were only sometimes included.

Polyglot markup is HTML5 that is also valid XHTML. See
<https://www.w3.org/TR/html-polyglot>. With this change, pandoc's
html5 writer creates HTML that is both valid HTML5 and valid XHTML.
See jgm/pandoc-templates#237 for prior discussion.
* Add xml namespace to `<html>` element.
* Make all `<meta>` elements self closing.
See <https://www.w3.org/TR/html-polyglot/#empty-elements>.
* Add `xml:lang` attribute on `<html>` element, defaulting to blank, and
always include `lang` attribute, even when blank. See
<https://www.w3.org/TR/html-polyglot/#language-attributes>.
* Update test files for template changes.
The key justification for having language values default to blank: it
turns out the HTML5 spec requires it (as I read it). Under
[the HTML5 spec, section "3.2.5.3. The lang and xml:lang
attributes"](https://www.w3.org/TR/html/dom.html#the-lang-and-xmllang-attributes),
providing attributes with blank contents both:
* Has meaning, "unknown", and
* Is a MUST (written as "must") if a language value is not provided ...
> The lang attribute (in no namespace) specifies the primary language
> for the element's contents and for any of the element's attributes that
> contain text. Its value must be a valid BCP 47 language tag, or the
> empty string. Setting the attribute to the empty string indicates that
> the primary language is unknown.
In short, it seems that where a language value is not provided then a
blank value MUST be provided for Polyglot Markup conformance, because
the HTML5 spec stipulates a "must". So although the Polyglot Markup spec
is unclear on this issue it would seem that if it was correctly written,
it would therefore require blank attributes.
Further justifications are found at
https://github.com/jgm/pandoc-templates/issues/237#issuecomment-275584181
(but the HTML5 spec justification given above would seem to be the
clincher).
In addition to having lang-values-default-to-blank I recommend that, when an
author does not provide a lang value, then upon on pandoc command execution
a warning message like the following be provided:
> Polyglot markup stipulates that 'The root element SHOULD always specify
> the language'. It is therefore recommended you specify a language value in
> your source document. See
> <https://www.w3.org/International/articles/language-tags/> for valid
> language values.
