PROTECTED_TAGS = { :pre => :block, # tag => is it a block or inline element? :code => :inline, :tt => :inline }
 

The content of these XHTML tags will be preserved while they are being processed by Textile. By doing this, we avoid unwanted Textile transformations, such as quotation marks becoming curly (&8192;), in source code.

VERBATIM_TAGS = { :noformat => :block # tag => is it a block or inline element? }
 

The content of these XHTML tags will be preserved verbatim throughout the text-to-XHTML conversion process.
