<!DOCTYPE html> not regonsised as an HTML Tag
Hi,
I am creating a snippet with a custom HTML header i.e.
multimarkdown.exe -s test.mmd > test.html
My test.mmd file include the following:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8"/>
<meta http-equiv="Cache-Control" content="no-cache, no-store, must-revalidate"/>
<meta http-equiv="Pragma" content="no-cache"/>
<meta http-equiv="Expires" content="0"/>
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="file:///E:/MyProfile/lua/lua/html/css/Normalize.css"/>
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="file:///E:/MyProfile/lua/lua/html/css/MutliMarkdown2.css"/>
<script src="file:///E:/MyProfile/lua/lua/html/js/highlight.min.js"></script>
<script>hljs.initHighlightingOnLoad();</script>
</head>
<body>
This was all working before I tried to use HTML5 by adding <!DOCTYPE html> this is not recognised as an html tag and the top line of my generated html contains:
<p><!DOCTYPE html>
I note that the -f option generates a header including <!DOCTYPE html>, is there anyway to pass the tag into a snippet unprocessed?
Kind Regards Gavin Holt

The "normal" way to do this in MultiMarkdown would be to use the -f
option as you note, and to include your desired HTML header content as
metadata:
html header: <meta http-equiv="Cache-Control" content="no-cache,
no-store, must-revalidate"/>
...
foo

Hi,
Many thanks for your time. My problem is of my own making, as I am piping the output of Upp into MultiMarkdown.
To make the source files as compact as possible I an using a single Upp.exe
include()function to bring in metadata and the header:$(include([[\MyProfile\lua\lua\upp\inc\Head.html]]))As we have discussed transclusion does not work for piped input via stdin:

I guess I will live without <!DOCTYPE html> as I cannot see any way to avoid it being modified.
Kind Regards Gavin Holt

Hi,
Sorry I had missed the
HTML head:metadata.Using the
multimarkdown.exe -foption it all works like a charm now - please close.Kind Regards Gavin Holt
