Dear context list,

I love simple tables in markdown like this one

\startmarkdown
  Right     Left     Center     Default
-------     ------ ----------   -------
     12     12        12            12
    123     123       123          123
      1     1          1             1

Table:  Demonstration of simple table syntax.
\stopmarkdown

Is there a way to reference this table?
With \starttabulate (\stoptabulate) tables can be referenced with
\placetable, but \placetable just creates another (empty) table in case
of a markdown table.

Thanks,
Xenia

Also if you put {} around the code? or use

\startplacetable{xx}
...
\stopplacetable

No this creates no caption and a second (empty) table with the right
caption.

and what about:

\startbuffer
\startmarkdown
...
\stopmarkdown
\stopbuffer

\placetable{whatever}{\getbuffer}

I might get you wrong here, but I think this is a markdown/pandoc
issue. Look at the ConTeXt code generated for section references:

  %%% section.markdown %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
  Whatever
  ========

  See [section](#whatever)
  %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

  %%% section.tex %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
  \section[whatever]{Whatever}

  See \in{section}{}[whatever]
  %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

Now compare this with the code generated for tables on the other
hand:

  %%% table.markdown %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
    Right     Left     Center     Default
  -------     ------ ----------   -------
       12     12        12            12
      123     123       123          123
        1     1          1             1

  Table: Caption

  See [table](#caption)
  %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

  %%% table.tex %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
  \placetable[here]{Caption}
  \starttable[|r|l|c|l|]
  \HL
  \NC Right
  \NC Left
  \NC Center
  \NC Default
  \NC\AR
  \HL
  \NC 12
  \NC 12
  \NC 12
  \NC 12
  \NC\AR
  \NC 123
  \NC 123
  \NC 123
  \NC 123
  \NC\AR
  \NC 1
  \NC 1
  \NC 1
  \NC 1
  \NC\AR
  \HL
  \stoptable

  See \in{table}{}[caption]
  %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

As you can see, no reference is created. I don't even know if
references are supported in markdown in the same way section
references are. If this is actually supposed to work, then I assume
a bug in the pandoc context output filter.

Unfortunately not. Marco might be right and this is a markdown issue …
