After a few more experiments, I find that I can't work out another problem
I was having: nested <p> elements (which is not legal HTML).
This occurs when I put a style on a @para; for example, a small change to
the example code that Matthew kindly provided:
#lang scribble/base
@(require scribble/core
scribble/decode
scribble/html-properties)
@(define foo-style (make-style "foo" (list (alt-tag "div"))))
@(define (foo . content) (make-nested-flow foo-style (decode-flow content)))
@foo{@para[#:style "foo"]{Bar.}
@para{Bar.}
This generates (excerpted):
<div class="foo"><p><div class="SIntrapara"><p
class="foo">Bar.</p></div><div
class="SIntrapara">Bar.</div></p></div></div></div>
My understanding is that a nested flow should be able to contain multiple
paragraphs. If I remove the style then the extra <p> elements are not
generated, but this doesn't seem to be the real problem; rather, it's that
the paragraphs are wrapped in a single <p> element containing <div
class="SIntrapara"> elements for the actual paragraphs. I find the
following documentation:
[@css{SIntrapara} @elem{Used with @tt{<div>} instead of @tt{<p>} for a
paragraph
within a @racket[compound-paragraph].}]
So it looks as though the contents of @foo is being treated as a "compound
paragraph", which itself is a somewhat tricky idea to me: it looks like
it's a way to typeset multiple paragraphs without each one being indented
(so really multiple paragraphs?) yet, as the name suggests, it's clearly
modelled as a single paragraph. But surely multiple @para's with a
nested-flow should work correctly?
I'm sorry, I can't work out whether the confusion is purely mine, or
whether there's something on going on in Scribble here!
