link text containing backtick code doesn't work for []::() · Issue #1209 · Python-Markdown/markdown (original) (raw)

@ericseppanen

With Markdown 3.3.6, the following markdown link doesn't render properly (no output is generated):

[Hello `[T]::world()` link](https://example.com)

If I remove the inner right-bracket ] or the following colon :, or the open parenthesis (, then it does render something.

commonmark 0.9.1 is able to render this link as expected:

<a href="https://example.com">Hello <code>[T]::world()</code> link</a>
