Some markup elements can not be nested within other markup elements without creating an ambiguous meaning. In this case, we can use the nesting delimiters '''!-!(-!''' and '''!-)!-!'''. These delimiters act like parenthesis - they do not add any content to the page but just group the interpretation of the enclosed markup correctly.

|
|
||
|
We can use this to nest tables, for example:
|
||
|
|
||
|
!-|this|table|-!
|
||
|
!-|has| !(|a|nested|table|)! |-!
|
||
|
|
||
|
displays as:
|
||
|
|
||
|
|this|table|
|
||
|
|has| !(|a|nested|table|)! |
|
||
|
|
||
|
Without nesting:
|
||
|
|
||
|
!-|this|table|-!
|
||
|
!-|has| |a|nested|table| |-!
|
||
|
|
||
|
is displayed as a single table.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|this|table|
|
||
|
|has| |a|nested|table| |
|
||
|
|
||
|
Nesting always creates a 'virtual' new line, so elements that must start on a new line can be nested within other content.
|
||
|
|
||
|
!-This line has !(!note a nested note)! within.-!
|
||
|
|
||
|
displays as:
|
||
|
|
||
|
This line has !(!note a nested note)! within.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Without nesting:
|
||
|
|
||
|
!-This line has !note a nested note within.-!
|
||
|
|
||
|
displays as:
|
||
|
|
||
|
This line has !note a nested note within.
