Can't have multiple HTML block tags (table, tr, td) on same line
Reported by David Cato | May 15th, 2009 @ 10:04 PM
Given
<table><tr><td>Foo</td></tr></table>
#to_html generates spurious p tags
<table><tr><td>Foo</td><p></tr></table></p>
If, however, a newline is inserted before the closing table tag (or a newline + space, but not a newline by itself, is inserted before the closing tr tag), then the extra p tags are not inserted.
Tested with both RedCloth 4.1.9 and the current (as of 2009-05-15) version on github.

Yeah, that's a problem. Right now you just have to have one block tag (TABLE, TR, TD) per line. So this would work fine.
<table> <tr> <td>Food</td> </tr> </table>The problem is the scanner isn't a sophisticated HTML parser. If it sees an opening block HTML tag, it pops into a separate HTML machine and exits when it encounters any closing block HTML tag.

Not going to figure this one out any time soon.
