Alert readers will be wondering how it is possible to include a definition list in a page controlled by a wiki form, since the wiki form markup uses definition lists to identify the fields making up the form. Why isn't the page display getting confused and interpreting "term" as a field designator? This is another use of the invisible stop markup ([[Tip (OfTheWeek.)00020]]). By starting the line with [@`.@] the definition list markup is passed over when the wiki forms script runs, then the invisible stop is removed before processing the list.

Like this one. It creates a "pseudo-indent" and is probably gratuitous

:Summary:List items with sub-paragraphs: item continuation lines

:Status:Logged

:Need:From time to time, I want to include one or more indented paragraphs within a list of items.

:Solution:There are 2 ways to accomplish this: with PmWiki whitespace markup or by using a special [[Wikipublisher]] extension.

# This is the PmWiki method\\
This paragraph is treated as a pseudo sub-paragraph within the item, by using a break and 2 space start-of-line indent.

# This is the Wikipublisher method:+
This paragraph is treated as a true sub-paragraph, by using an end-of-line "continuation" markup.

This is just a regular text paragraph.
