That's because lists (and most of TW text) requires a blank line BEFORE to become active (be parsed correctly)
Try with this text: ! This is a header > !! Header 2 > Some text I'm typing > > * a list item > * another > ** a subitem > > > I felt in that trap several times. You probably didn't noticed this because there is an exception to that rule: there is no need for a line break after a header. So, in the previous if you remove the text "Some text I'm typing" or you turns it into a header the extra line break is not needed: ! This is a header !! Header 2 !!!Some text I'm typing ( Now a header 3) * a list item * another ** a subitem Regards -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
