Hi Ray,
I know that this works in HTML:
<figure floatstyle="right">
or
<informalfigure
floatstyle="right">
It should also work with example, informalexample,
table, informaltable.
But a sidebar in HTML can still be made to float if
you use CSS. The sidebar content is output into a div with
class="sidebar", so you could make the CSS work using a float: right CSS
property.

I cut and pasted the example in
"Sidebar example" (under "A sidebar as a side float") from my book into a
DocBook 5 test file and processed with Saxon 6.5.5, xsl-1.70.1, and XEP
4.6. The sidebar example worked for me. I wasn't in Oxygen, and I
wasn't using a customization layer, though. Did you include the
processing instruction to designate a left float?
Sidebar floats have not been
implemented in HTML yet. In the HTML stylesheet, only formal and
informalobjects (figure, informalfigure, etc.) with a
floatstyle="left|right" are implemented. <<
Attempted sidebar
floats with the aforementioned Sidebar example script and a nested
informalfigure; rendered correctly in PDF transformations. HTML transformation
resulted in a right-justified image and no text to the left. I remain unclear
on HTML; no side float works with HTML or only informal objects? If the
latter, can’t get my HTML to transform correctly.
