A comment on GitHub Collapsible Markdown. Parent comment

Your comment is accurate but I think its the fact that GitHub styles it in that way. I do wish it was possible to use markdown-types of elements in this way so that it could fallback on non-GitHub rendered web pages, or still look good in a text editor vs. HTML tags all over the place.

Maybe something like

^ Header

^^^

Collapsed

^^^

Similar to code blocks with the ``` syntax. I dunno.

GitHub hardly styles it at all. It applies a margin-top on top of what normalize.css does. It's 99% your browser's default style sheet at work.

First we couldn't tell the difference between git and github. Now we can't tell the difference between browsers and github.
