This may be not a bug in JSPWiki. But it is at least a strange behaviour of standard browsers with standard HTML.
Following markup does not do what you expect. (it does work in the JSPWiki2.2 )
This is an empty bold statement : ____ (4 underscores) This is an empty italic statement : '''' (4 single quotes)
The markup generated by JSPWiki is correct, I assume, namely:
<b/> <i/>
However, the browser renders this very strange: both italic and bold get turned on, but not turned off.
The markup generated by JSPWiki 2.2.x was different, and did avoid this behaviour.
<b></b> <i></i>
Any HTML expert out there ?

Mmm... So says the XHTML spec:
- C.3. Element Minimization and Empty Element Content
- Given an empty instance of an element whose content model is not EMPTY (for example, an empty title or paragraph) do not use the minimized form (e.g. use <p> </p> and not <p />).
Fixed in 2.3.34.
