Item14455: Malformed System.AdminDocumentationCategory.

The side bar ends up on the right of the screen. This is on my local site and on foswiki.org.

The included content from ReleaseHistory is returning an extra </div> confusing the layout.

I quickly hacked the search in System.Category to excludetopic="ReleaseHistory" locally and the page then formatted correctly. Using developer tools in chrome and viewing the source allowed me to identify the extra </div>

It may be enough to amend the $pattern in System.Category to be smarter somehow.

However, there are other System topics locally that also behave like this — pushing the sidebar to the right — and I wonder if this issue is suggestive of a deeper problem in the render pipeline. I confess that I have little idea of the flow of stuff in the render pipeline

The solution is to just reorganize the ReleaseHistory a bit to make sure some text follows the ---+ heading. Then the pattern regex gets it right.

The regex assumes that there is a heading followed by at least a sentence of description. If the found topic does not follow this layout, it will scramble the results. I've fixed a few issues that messes up these topics. Setting this to waiting for release.

The core render code doesn't do anything to validate proper open/close sequences of divs. That sort of change probably needs a feature request.
