Hello,

I have a following problem: I need to wrap every <table> element into a <div> during rendering. What would be the best approach to solve it? I thought about a custom extension but not sure whether I can change order of elements there. Another option would be to directly modify MarkdownDocument isn't it?

I know I could use CustomContainers but then client would have to remember to wrap each table into them and I want to avoid.

I'll be thankful for suggestions.

You probably have two options:

You could extend HtmlTableRenderer, replace the previous HtmlTableRenderer setup in the HtmlRenderer, override the method HtmlTableRenderer.Write (calling the base and wrapping it with a div)
You can also manipulate the MarkdownDocument to add a custom container around.

If it is just a rendering issue, maybe option 1. is the easiest (Haven't checked the details, so it might not work in the end)
