Re: Re: [Text_Wiki] Re: [PEAR-DEV] Re: [Text_Wiki] Text_Markup , some necessary evolution of Text_Wiki ?

I'm trying to say that I already have a stack based validator written  
in PHP that you (we?) are free to use. If you are using any sort of  
nested, XML like, code, I have code that can already validate it.  
While we are at it, it can also correct it, or ignore bad tags.

Since you mention it, I also have a large set of unit tests in the  
HTML_BBCodeParser that I have linked. You should take a look. I think  
that anything that depreciates *both* Text_Wiki and HTML_BBCodeParser  
should be able to handle them at a minimum.
