Question

Does anyone have any ideas why "Verbatim Mode" formatting would not be working on my TWiki site? If I use the verbatim tags on TWiki.org (as in this example), it works fine. But if I use the same formatting on my own site (as shown here) it doesn't work.

Any hints as to where I should look for the cause of this would be much appreciated!

• TWiki version: Dec. 01
• Web server: Apache
• Server OS: Linux
• Web browser: Mozilla
• Client OS: MacOS

Answer

Not exactly sure why, but there are some changes in the verbatim handling in the latest TWikiBetaRelease. Your safest bet is to upgrade.

If you look at the html source, you will see that the TWiki engine is only replacing the initial and last < and > signs, thus everything is hidden by the last > in the line.

A workaround could be to put spaces in between your html commands.
