Thanks for the pointer to the formalpara element. It does almost exactly 
what I want. I also see now that I made a mistake in my choice of words 
when describing what I exactly wanted with respect to the line break.

This is what I want:

Title of the paragraph in bold face
     This is the body of the paragraph to which the title corresponds.
     There is *a single line break* between the title and the paragraph
     body, and the body is indented to some arbitrary amount. The body
     uses a regular, plain font and the title uses the bold version of
     that same font.


When transformed into HTML format, this is what I got:


[begin bold] The title of the paragraph [end bold] The body of the 
paragraph immediately follows the title; as you can see, there is *no 
line break* between title and the paragraph body. Also, the body has not 
been indented. The body does indeed have the desired regular, plain font.


Is it possible to get the extra new line and the indenting (possibly by 
using an adjusted style sheet) ? If so I'd appreciate very much a 
pointer to some information that explains how to do that.


Thanks in advance,

Erik Leunissen
