Is this the syntax you are expecting/using or is this what is generated? I don't think it is correct; attribute/value pair you quote earlier is the right syntax, I believe. > > But at least Mozilla makes no difference in displaying such HTML > compared to 'ul' w/o 'compact'. This is probably a FAQ, certainly the question has come up before. Assuming we are transforming to HTML: Do your <li>s contain <p>s? If so, the <p> element and its margin and padding characteristics may be overiding the spacing="compact" characteristic. You can check this by putting a CSS rule within a <style> element in the <head> of your document or into your external stylesheet: li p {padding:0; margin:0;} and see what changes, if any, occur. Manipulate this rule to refine the spacing if you want to affect the <p> child of <li> or change the <p> characterisitcs overall with a p {} rule. If you are viewing XML according to DocBook, you would substitute <para> for <p> in the selector. Regards. ...edN
