# Markdown troubles…

 * When I try to put the following code in a post, my site goes all haywire:
    <?
   php wp_list_cats(‘optioncount=1&sort_column=name’); ?> I thought Markdown was
   supposed to fix this, but it doesn’t. Now CodeFilter works, but for some reason,
   inside the ` blocks it messes with the css. I guess I have to make a #code css
   tag to fix that. But, what's the story with Markdown. I'm using the latest vers
   of WP (1.2). Thanks!
