The documentation can't be clearer, it says that newer translators try to be more fault tolerant and is also explicit with counterexamples.

See my last post for according passages.

your problems are

1. that you didn't expect core pod2html to be one of such older translators ... well welcome in the world of a >20 years old open-source project where backwards compatibility dominates.

2. that you want that a tunnel view on a single paragraph already includes the information of a whole man-page.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
