Re: [docbook-apps] Callouts v5

Hi Dave,
Yes, the HTML code uses an HTML table to lay out the calloutlist, and the 
template with match="callout" in html/lists.xsl  sets the first cell width 
to 5%.  If you widen your window, does the column get wider?  You could 
customize that template to change the cell width.  Or you could put 
non-breaking spaces between the callouts to force them to one line, which 
should override the 5% suggestion.

The FO code uses a fo:list-block with fixed 
provisional-distance-between-starts, so it will have a similar problem, 
probably worse.  The code should take into account the number of callout 
bugs, so that would be a nice feature request.
