Question

Im using python markdown for my django project, when i have the value

#/usr/bin/env python
print "this is converted to html code block"

the output is

<pre><code>    
#/usr/bin/env python
print "this is converted to html code block"
</code><pre>

Now my question is that how can i pass class attribute and value to code elem.
Sample:

#i should be using some markdown syntax below
[class="python"]
#/usr/bin/env python
print "this is converted to html code block"

and then the output here

<pre><code class="python">    
#/usr/bin/env python
print "this is converted to html code block"
</code><pre>

is that possible? and how?

Answer 1

You can write HTML in Markdown, but you can’t add things like classes and ids.
