I'm using Text.ParserCombinators.Parsec and Text.XHtml to parse an input like this:

this is the beginning of the paragraph --this is an emphasized text-- and this is the end\n

And my output should be:

<p>this is the beginning of the paragraph <em>this is an emphasized text</em> and this is the end\n</p>

This code parses and returns an emphasized element


em = do{ 
      ;count 2 (char '-') ;
      ;s <- manyTill anyChar (count 2 (char '-')) 
      ;return  (emphasize  << s)
     }

But I don't know how to get the paragraphs with emphasized items

Any ideas?

Thanks!!
