    I would like to be able to set header lines. I have tried with textile and for some reason it assumes all text after the header tag is supposed to be a header, I can't seem to close the header tag with textile. In other wiki software headers are one line affairs where you put a series of "+ " signs at the head of the line to set that line as a header.

    + Header 1
    this would be plain text
    ++ Header 2
    this would be more plane text
    +++ Header 3
    this would be even more planar text

    In other wikis they have taken this functionality and dropped an anchor at the same time as the header tag when translating the wiki markup to html. That way they can add a table of contents tag ([[toc]] in wikispaces) that generates a table of headings that you can use to jump down the page. there is a good example of this in action at http://art110.wikispaces.com/Syllabus+08s

    Just one more thought.

    Good thoughts. For now, it should be possible to use Textile.


    h1. Header 1

    h2. Header 2

    h3. Header 3


    looks something like

    h1. Header 1

    h2. Header 2

    h3. Header 3

    Just make sure to leave a blank space between the header line and the following text.

    Otherwise, you should be able to use regular tags:


    Header 1
