Okay, so maybe I should have looked 20 lines or so above where I made the edit in the element function – looks like it already supports adding attributes ;p Have amended the change to blocklist to use the already existing functionality, and have reverted the change that I made to the element function. |

Questions
How does Parsedown work?
It tries to read Markdown like a human. First, it looks at the lines. It’s interested in how the lines start. This helps it recognise blocks. It knows, for example, that if a line start with a - then it perhaps belong to a list. Once it recognises the blocks, it continues to the content. As it reads, it watches out for special characters. This helps it recognise inline elements (or inlines).
We call this approach "line based". We believe that Parsedown is the first Markdown parser to use it. Since the release of Parsedown, other developers have used the same approach to develop other Markdown parsers in PHP and in other languages.
Is it compliant with CommonMark?
It passes most of the CommonMark tests. Most of the tests that don't pass deal with cases that are quite uncommon. Still, as CommonMark matures, compliance should improve.
Who uses it?
