Looks like nested variablelists should be the
FO-Processor-Challenge-Of-The_Week. 8^)
I used three processors and got three different results
when using 'variablelist.as.blocks'.
PassiveTeX indented nothing.
FOP indented the first level paragraphs and the second
level terms to the same amount, but did not further indent
the second level paras.
XEP 2 (demo version) properly indented everything.
So the winner this week is XEP.
And the DocBook stylesheets, which appear to be putting
out the right codes if the processors would just
cooperate.

Thanks, Bob. You'd think, with all the other such errors I've dealt with
this week, that I'd learn to suspect that final processing step. :-)

What the stylesheet is supposed to produce in this
mode is:
Term two
exercitation ullamcorper suscipit lobortis nisl ut
aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis autem vel eum
two a
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer
adipiscing elit, sed diam nonummy nibh euismod
two b
exercitation ullamcorper suscipit lobortis nisl
ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis autem
Term cee
illum dolore eu feugiat nulla facilisis at vero
eros et accumsan et iusto odio dignissim qui
That is, the paras below the term should be
indented relative to the term.

DOCBOOK-APPS: nesting variablelists in PDF
I want to set my variable lists (from XML) as blocks, but I want them to nest. If I set my variablelists as lists, they nest something like this: Term one Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit, sed diam nonummy nibh euismod tincidunt ut laoreet dolore magna aliquam erat volutpat. Ut wisi enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud Term two exercitation ullamcorper suscipit lobortis nisl ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis autem vel eum iriure dolor in hendrerit in vulputate velit esse molestie consequat, two aLorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit, sed diam nonummy nibh euismod tincidunt ut laoreet dolore magna aliquam erat volutpat. Ut wisi enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud two b exercitation ullamcorper suscipit lobortis nisl ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat.

If, however, I set , then I get this: Term one Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit, sed diam nonummy nibh euismod tincidunt ut laoreet dolore magna aliquam erat volutpat.

Does anyone know a way to make the variablelist blocks nest, so that I get something like: Term one Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit, sed diam nonummy nibh euismod tincidunt ut laoreet dolore magna aliquam erat volutpat. Ut wisi enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud Term two exercitation ullamcorper suscipit lobortis nisl ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat.
