Forum: Radiant CMS Strange markup help

I'm (still) working on an upgrade from Radiant 0.6.7 to 0.9.1 and I'm 
seeing
some markup in pages that rendered fine under the old system but not 
under
the new. To cite a specific example:

    %(h3)%(carat)›%"Contact Us":../contact-us%

This translates to:

<span class="h3"><span class="carat">›</span><a 
href="../contact-us">Contact
Us</a></span>

The old CMS is allegedly using Textile to process this markup, but this
doesn't look like Textile that I've seen (I was just recently introduced 
to
it and I don't personally use it). Can anyone help me understand what 
this
is?

What's the old CMS? That's not standard textile.

%(XYZ)abc%

is textile for <span class=XYZ>abc</span>. so the output you get is
correct. but i've never seen it nested like that (and testing with the
latest redcloth shows that nesting is not allowed there). perhaps the
old cms had some textile extensions or just a different parser that
supported `span class` differently. to replicate it in radiant with
redcloth just replace the outer span.h3 with a real html element:

<span class=h3>%(caret)&#0155;%"Contact Us":../contact-us</span>

As I stated in my original e-mail, Radiant 0.6.7...which is using 
RedCloth
3.0.4.

In redcloth.rb in that version of RedCloth, I'm seeing this:

# == Quick Phrase Modifiers

# Quick phrase modifiers are also included, to allow formatting

    QTAGS = [
        ['**', 'b'],
        ['*', 'strong'],
        ['??', 'cite', :limit],
        ['-', 'del', :limit],
        ['__', 'i'],
        ['_', 'em', :limit],
*        ['%', 'span', :limit],*
        ['+', 'ins', :limit],
        ['^', 'sup'],
        ['~', 'sub']
    ]

Ah. I feel stupid now, sorry. I'd definitely defer to John Muhl on
markup parsers.
