Text that appears on a line directly following a `div` tag does not render correctly. Placing a blank line after the line with the div solves it.

```plaintext
<div>divved text</div>
[a link]( `/admin/email/templates`.) **italic**

```

divved text
[a link]( `/admin/email/templates`.) \*\*italic\*\*

_ **Other html doesn’t cause the problem:** _

```plaintext
<small>small text</small>
[a link]( `/admin/email/templates`.) **italic**

```

small text  
a link **italic**

```plaintext
<span>spanned text</span>
[a link]( `/admin/email/templates`.) **italic**

```

spanned text  
a link **italic**

My guess is that once html is detected, the following line is both sucked into the processor and subsequently _not_ parsed for markdown. You can test this by putting some text on the line after the div and at the beginning of the next line:

```plaintext
<div>divved text</div> end of div
beginning of markdown [a link]( `/admin/email/templates`.) **italic**

```

divved text
 end of div beginning of markdown [a link]( `/admin/email/templates`.) \*\*italic\*\*
