Re: Latex image and equation references not working in 4.0b (\href and \autoref)

[Skrummel]

I poked a bit around the source, and it seems that the \href{}{} comes from the following lines:

if (n->link_data->label == NULL) {

/* This link was specified as [](#bar) */

/* do as told, even if it doesn't make sense */

g_string_append_printf(out, "\\href{%s}{}", n->link_data->source);

} else {

g_string_append_printf(out, "\\autoref{%s}", n->link_data->label); 

}

I am not sure why it needs to do what it is told even if it doesn't make sense :) 

Anyhow, I hacked it to the following: 

if (n->link_data->label == NULL) {

g_string_append_printf(out, "\\autoref{%s}", n->link_data->source + 1); 

}

Which I only recommend as a last resort until this gets sorted.

Kind regards.

Hi there,

With the new version of Markdown (4.0b) it seems that the Latex references changed from \autoref{labelname} to \href{labelname}{}, which unfortunately is not working properly for me.

The problem arise when I insert a image (or equation) in Markdown using the following:

![Caption][labelname]

[labelname]: path/to/image

And make the reference with [](#labelname).

I use mmd2tex and then pdflatex to compile, this correctly inserts the figure in Latex and also creates a \href{labelname}{}, however in the PDF this reference is not showing up and pdflatex throws the following error:

pdfTeX warning (dest): name{labelname} has been referenced but does not exist,

 replaced by a fixed one

Anyone got any ideas on how to fix this? The same Markdown compiled beautifully under version 3.

That comment is from the HTML source, where it really doesn't make sense to have a link with nothing "inside" it.

I can tweak the latex (and possibly ODF) code.

Pushed a commit to github that should fix this, and updated the test suite to reflect the change.
