I'm going to rewrite those
<a href="#filtering-tables">links to<a href="#user-content-filtering-tables">- but only if a correspondingid="user-content-filtering-tables"element exists.simonw commentedon Dec 16, 2020
I don't want to add a full HTML parser (like BeautifulSoup) as a dependency for this feature. Since the HTML comes from a single, trusted source (GitHub) I could probably handle this using regular expressions.
