[emacs-wiki-discuss] Verbatim, lisp and blockquote

[Phillip Lord]

I've been trying to move my website over to muse generation and
cascading style sheets (I already use some of muse!). 

For one page, I need to incorporate some externally generated HTML
(produced by bibtex2html). The HTML is "headless" -- it's just body
code so can be just dropped in. 

My thought was to do...


<lisp>
   (with-temp-file 
        (insert-file-contents "file.txt")
        (concat "<verbatim>\n" (string-buffer) "\n</verbatim"))
<lisp>


This almost works but not quite.

This comes out in the final version as....

So the blockquote markup is being interpreted, even though it is
inside of the verbatim. 

As the original HTML is generated, I can't change this easily -- my
only current idea is to use perl to hack the original HTML and remove
the indent -- this should work, but it's somewhat unsatisfying. 

I think that this is actually a bug; of course, it might be intended
behaviour which unintended consequences. 

Suggestions welcome!

Thanks

Phil
