Re: [docbook-apps] trademark tag not rendered correctly in javahelp

[Paul Taylor <paul_t100@fastmail.fm>]

Ive tried it and it works, thanks alot.
(BTW there was a SUN Java bug originally raised in 1999 but then closed 
not fixed
          http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4233437
and there is an outstanding request for enhancement to fully support 
html 4.0
          http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4296022
which is in the top 25 rfes. but isnt wasnt done for java 1.5 so it 
might be worth sticking this fix into the docbook
stylesheets).
