Markdown Extra - HTML <a>-block?

I am currently trying to solve an issue I have with some markdown HTML.
What I try to achieve is a <a>-block. The code I want to use in the markdown file is as follow:

<a href="#" markdown="1"><div class="left">
## Title 1
![Description](test.png)
</div></a>

Now the problem is that the output of this is really unusable:

<p><a href="#" markdown="1"><div class="left"></p>
<h2>Title 1</h2>
<p><img alt="Description" src="/path/grav-admin/user/pages/03.de/01.home/_home1/test.png" />
</div></a></p>

I tried also other variants using <a> without <div>, but the output is also bad.

How can I get clean code?

Try to put the <a> within the <div>:)

The result is even worse then:

--- html
<div div class="left">
<p><a href="#"></p>
<h2>Title 1</h2>
<p><img alt="Description" src="/path/grav-admin/user/pages/03.de/01.home/_home1/test.png" />
</a></p>
</div>

what if you try this?

<a href="#"><div class="left" markdown="1">
## Title 1
![Description](test.png)
</div></a>
---

This seems to be the best solution, as I get only one <p></p> block which isn't that much in the way (I hope at least).

--- html
<div markdown="1" div="" class="left"><p></p><a href="#">
<h2>Title 1</h2>
<p><img alt="Description" src="/path/grav-admin/user/pages/03.de/01.home/_home1/test.png">
</p></a></div>

EDIT:
My answer above is wrong, as I didn't see that the link will appear 2x.

--- html
<p><a href="#"></a></p>
<div markdown="1" div="" class="left"><p></p><a href="#">
<h2>Title 1</h2>
<p><img alt="Description" src="/path/grav-admin/user/pages/03.de/01.home/_home1/test.png">
</p></a></div>

So I can also not use this solution...

Any other ideas?

Hello,
Could you use a span instead of a div ?

Sorry, I hadn't seen the h2 wich is also a block element...

I created an issue for this: https://github.com/getgrav/grav-plugin-admin/issues/1126

Also I'm considering using Twig instead of markdown for this specific case. I noticed you can choose.

This is really a limitation of Markdown Extra. it's not very well supported and doesn't get updated often (last commit was 2 years ago - https://github.com/erusev/parsedown-extra), so i suggest not using markdown inside HTML, better to just use pure HTML with some Twig if you want to get the output you desire.
