RE: DOCBOOK-APPS: REPOST: Why do section titles have a differentmargin than text?

2003-02-27 Thread Lisa Carey
Hi Brian, The default for "title.margin.left" is -4pc, so your titles start further to the left than your text. You can just move them in by setting "title.margin.left" to zero. cheers, Lisa -Original Message- From: Brian Burridge [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 27 February 2003 17:24 T

Hi Scott, You can specify colours for individual table cells in HTML/HTML Help output using the entry-bgcolor processing instruction. Just put this in the appropriate table : I don't know is there anything similar for FO, though. cheers, Lisa -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTE

Now this *is* peculiar. I tried altering my entities file as you suggest - declaring the entities relative to the location of the entities file, which actually makes much more sense, and is much more useful for reusing the entities file! Them I ran xmllint --debug on an individual document, and ev

Hi, Investigation has continued! I tried validating the document with xmllint and got the same problems (looking for the file a level above its actual location), so the issue isn't with Elliotte's XIncluder app. What does seem to be causing trouble is where the entities are declared. Currently,
