[textile] Textile causing invalid markup with dl, dd, dt tags with use of <br />

I posted this in another thread I started but of a different issue so I wanted to put up a new post dedicated to this issue.

It seems that Textile inserts break tags after every dl, dd, or dt tag. Is there a way to avoid this because there is too much space caused b/w these break tags especially in Firefox? A site won’t validate either if there are br tags after each one of these as well.

To help decrease the space caused by this, I’ve considered adding a negative top margin to help but it won’t render consistently amongst various browsers.

Please, could you post the code that is generating the invalid/non-desired output?

If you happen to beginning your line with

<dl>...

and so on in your article, insert begin your line with a space in front of it, e.g.

 <dl>...

Textile will then not treat the line as a paragraph and not wrap it in <p>-tags.
