Subject: DOCBOOK: Re: itemized list within <para> or after </para>??
/ "Robert P. J. Day" <rpjday@mindspring.com> was heard to say: | is it proper to make the itemized list a sub-element of the | paragraph, or to close the <para> and have the itemized list | as the next element at the same level? Yes. (i.e. both are proper.) | aesthetically, it doesn't appear to make any difference, but | TDG under "Para" suggests that "Some processing systems may find | the presence of block elements in a paragraph difficult to | handle". (p. 351) In particular, transformation to HTML will produce invalid HTML with some tools. (Because HTML doesn't allow blocks in paragraphs). | so, any strong opinions either way? I'm sure there are. :-) But at the end of the day, it's a matter of style. Be seeing you, norm -- Norman Walsh <ndw@nwalsh.com> | Mountains appear more lofty the http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/ | nearer they are approached, but Chair, DocBook Technical Committee | great men resemble them not in | this particular.--Lady Blessington
