Description Dan Wolff 2010-02-16 06:55:31 UTC
Example: http://sv.wiktionary.org/wiki/Anv%C3%A4ndare:Skalman/test/bugs/definition_lists

When entering <dt>Definition term</dt> the next line is seen as a <dd>, and vice versa. This goes even if the next line has ---- for a <hr/>.

I'm aware that you *should* use <dl></dl>, but MediaWiki should do the best it can in the given situation. (just as it does with <li>)

Note that the same results should be produced even if the end tags </dt> and </dd> are omitted.
Comment 1 Marcin Cieślak 2012-04-23 22:35:27 UTC
Did Gerrit change #5174 (to fix bug 11748) improve the situation?
Comment 2 Gabriel Wicke 2012-04-24 07:01:18 UTC
I am quite certain Gerrit change #5174 does not make a difference to this, as it does not touch the handling of preformatted blocks.
