http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=23796 [PATCH] docs pages containing <source> are sometimes too wide ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-11-08 22:59 ------- David, can you point at some examples of author's using <source> in such a way that it requires <pre> HTML formatting? I'm curious to see if these are really examples of source code, or just tag abuse. The <source> code I looked at didn't include such stuff. One approach that Nicola suggested was to use <source type="xml"> etc or <source type="java"> and this may help. The templates I posted were really suited to type="xml", and with a bit of a twiddle would also suit type="java" (currently they don't handle //-style comments). Maybe we could move forward more quickly by adding the templates with: <xsl:template match="[EMAIL PROTECTED]'xml']"> or even: <xsl:template match="source[starts-with(normalize-space(),'<') and substring (normalize-space(),string-length(normalize-space()))='>'"> etc. Vadim, I think your low-tech suggestion mixes concerns. Optimum line-lengths are a function of the output device (paper size, paper margins, screen resolution, browser font size, etc). For a given line of <source>, on some devices line wrapping may be necessary, but on other devices not. So it's not really appropriate to hard-code these decisions on an individual basis in the xdocs.
