On my local Jekyll I use kramdown and this table

|---
| Default aligned | Left aligned | Center aligned | Right aligned
|-|:-|:-:|-:
| First body part | Second cell | Third cell | fourth cell
| Second line |foo | **strong** | baz
| Third line |quux | baz | bar
|---
| Second body
| 2 line
|===
| Footer row

from http://kramdown.rubyforge.org/syntax.html#tables

works fine

when I select in custom processor the same Kramdown, it doesn't get rendered correctly

   Works fine here, see if other settings might be causing issues: http://ckyp.us/M5QQ

   You're right - it works fine when I only have the code for the table. But I've included a file where it goes wrong. Remark, this is a 'work-in-progress' setup for my Jekyll site ;-)

   from what I've found so far it has something to do with the

   <cite>(That’s a citation)</cite>

   ok - small example now

   <cite>(That’s a citation)</cite>

   |---
   | Default aligned | Left aligned | Center aligned | Right aligned
   |-|:-|:-:|-:
   | First body part | Second cell | Third cell | fourth cell
   | Second line |foo | **strong** | baz
   | Third line |quux | baz | bar
   |---
   | Second body
   | 2 line
   |===
   | Footer row

   doesn't work, if you delete the <cite> it works fine

   I hope this helps

   it's the quote, Brett, the damned quote ;-)

   It's some sort of a smart quote, not a regular one - pfew

   hope this helps

   I still can't get it to fail. Kramdown 1.0.2, your full blog post renders as http://ckyp.us/mOLp

   I tried a whole slew of different config options, but nothing broke it.

   Weird, kramdown 1.2.0 here - but don't worry, I replaced the 'smart' quote with a 'dumb' one, and it works fine now.

   If something more serious pops-up I let you know

   I have had endless problems with UTF-8 and extended characters with kramdown (and Jekyll/Liquid in general). It's touchy.
