variablelist, delleting blank line

["Lily Galle" <lily.galle@gmx.net>]

Hi,

(I use XEP.)

In the stylesheet I wrote: 

  <xsl:param name="variablelist.as.blocks">0</xsl:param>        

    <xsl:attribute-set name="normal.para.spacing">
      <xsl:attribute name="space-before.optimum">0pt</xsl:attribute>
      <xsl:attribute name="space-before.minimum">0pt</xsl:attribute>
      <xsl:attribute name="space-before.maximum">0pt</xsl:attribute>
    </xsl:attribute-set>

So there is no space between different paragraphs. 

But if I use “variablelist”, there is a blank line produced. What should I do to delete this blank line?

For example in the following code there is no space between the first three paragraphs. However there is a blank line (which I do not want.) before paragraph 4, because the paragraph 4 uses “variablelist”.

The code is written like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<book version="5.0" xml:lang="de" xmlns="http://docbook.org/ns/docbook";
    xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude";>
       
    <title>book title</title>
    
    <chapter>                      
        <title>chapter title</title>
        <para>             
            Paragraph 1: Mangagement has different types.        
        </para>

        <para>             
           Paragraph 2:  What are the effects?        
        </para>

        <para>             
            Paragraph 3:  Let us see it in detail.     
        </para>
        
        <variablelist>                    
                <varlistentry>
                    <term>Types</term>
                    <listitem>  
                    <para>             
                Paragraph 4: There are some different types of  management. 
                    </para>
                    </listitem>
                </varlistentry>
        </variablelist> 
        <variablelist>      
            
            <varlistentry>
                <term>Effects</term>
                <listitem>  
                    <para>             
                        Paragraph 5: Effects are shown here.
                    </para>
                </listitem>
            </varlistentry>
        </variablelist> 
    </chapter>
   </book> 
      
         
(Part of) the output looks like this:

Paragraph 1: Mangagement has different types.
Paragraph 2: What are the effects?
Paragraph 3: Let us see it in detail.

Types Paragraph 4: There are some different types of management.

Effects Paragraph 5: Effects are shown here.


Thanks for any help!
