When a page containing tags and using the syntax (3rd party) plugin (though pages using other preprocessors may also be affected) is rendered as an inline page, some extra <p>
elements are added.
Example output:
<p><span class="tags">
Tags:</p>
<p><span class="selflink">XML</span></p>
<p></span></p>
Expected output:
<p><span class="tags">
Tags:
<span class="selflink">XML</span>
</span></p>
A fix is to change inlinepage.tmpl to remove new lines around tag links, as follows:
--- templates/inlinepage.tmpl (revision 4626)
+++ templates/inlinepage.tmpl (working copy)

<TMPL_IF NAME="TAGS">

+<TMPL_LOOP NAME="TAGS"> <TMPL_VAR NAME=LINK></TMPL_LOOP>
</span>
</TMPL_IF>
I'm sure this is only working around a symptom, the problem must be that markdown gets confused by the html generated by the syntax plugin. Have you tried markdown 1.0.2? This version has a more robust html parser.
I don't have the prerequisites for the syntax plugin installed here to debug it myself. --Joey
