"Case in point: the markup in your final link is terrible" To be fair to Redactor, I was using an older version before its license change. It was something I quickly integrated a while back and it does introduce <BR> and some other weird things. At the moment moment of writing the tutorial, I just needed it to "Look Right" and not technically be "Right" or "Pretty". My core product doesn't revolve around document management. "I could never sanction the use of an editor that produces that kind of garbage." The thing is, I'm willing to bet a lot of people couldn't care less about the HTML produced. In my case, I just needed to get the document out ASAP so that I could move on to the other hundred things on my to do list. I probably used redactor to put a square into a circle, but it got the job done for me. "Don't get me wrong, Markdown is not the solution either" I agree and who ever comes up with the solution, will probably do quite well. My reason for posting was to point out the Markdown isn't the final solution. For now, I'm willing to bet a lot of people just want to be able to type away and have things look right, with out it being right.
