README markdown swallows HTML
Reported by Nick Stenning | August 13th, 2008 @ 10:51 AM
The automatic README to html generation unfortunately swallows certain pieces of html that it should be leaving alone.
At my new repo for moodelegate you can see when comparing raw to generated html that Github has eaten the "id='bigger'" and "id='smaller'" attributes.
If you look at the previous commit you'll see even more interesting behaviour, where Github swallows an entire open/close button tag.

Yes, it seems to be removing all HTML whether preformatted or not. Tags such as form, table, tr, td, option, etc. are completely gone.

It appears that the solution to #665 fixed this as well, please confirm.

I've got a table in there, correctly separated from the normal markdown by blank lines and the html is just getting eaten.
