Re: [docbook-apps] Preventing identing of table of contents on lefthandside of frame doc.

[Paul Taylor <paul_t100@fastmail.fm>]

Thanks, this almost works the trouble is it removes indents from both 
the left handside and right handside frames I only want to remove it 
from the left handside.
Is there a way of removing it only from left handside. i.e is there a 
way of specifying a different Sylesheet for lefthandside and 
righthandsiide ? Or could
div.toc dd be extended to only match left hand side. I tried using 
div.titlepage div.toc dd but it didnt match anything.
