michaelsy Oh, I thank you for giving me opportunity to explain the plugin :-) And I'm sure we find a common ground about the name of it as well ;-)
But coming back to a "general" HTML tag. As I mentioned, this would be relatively easy to achieve, just write some RegEx that matches any HTML tag, and plug it in (there are even hooks for overriding the RegEx, so it would involve not more than four or five lines of (very simple) code.
However, I would expect that this would interfere wildly with the built-in tags (like <del>
) or any other tags that plugins may contribute (like <WRAP>
) and at the same time, this would open up security issues that are hard to fathom.
I really think that the approach that the Wrap plugin took here is the better one - and I am trying to improve on it to make it more useful. But simply opening up all tags and all attributes is not a good approach.
But - again - my invitation stands to let me know which specific tags or attributes you need on top of the ones already supported, and we can then discuss if and how they can be implemented. The system is really quite flexible and efficient now - most tag-specific classes now consist only of a single line of code (like $tag = "abbr";
and that's it!)
