From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.2) Gecko/20040809 Description of problem: Within the Stateless Linux HOWTO source, I had some content of this form: <step> <title>Do something</title> <para>Some text</para> <para>Some more text</para> </step> When I ran Make to generate an HTML version of the DocBook, all of the elements within each <step> element appeared in one block without linebreaks. This ruined the readability of the output, since I got huge paragraphs, rather than a series of manageable ones. The title elements looked wrong as well. (It was worked around by putting each para into its own step inside substeps, but I believe the problem remains) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Try this input (haven't checked it, I'm afraid): <article> <procedure> <step> <title>Do something</title> <para>Some text</para> <para>Some more text</para> </step> </procedure> </article> Now view the generated html Additional info:
I tested this. It's definitely *not* broken in a generic "xmlto," i.e.: xmlto html test.xml It only happens if I build in our FDP environment. Something to do with our surrounding "stuff" (sorry, not an XSLT or any other related tool expert here) is breaking the proper behavior.
Dave, are you still seeing this problem? I just built your doc and didn't see it. We haven't seen this before since we usually use <orderedlist> instead of <procedure> and <step>.
I'm still seeing this behavior under FC3 and using an updated copy of the fedora-docs CVS stuff.
Hi Paul. Will you attach the test document you used to reproduce this on FC3? Thanks.
Here is the document in its entirety, hoping it reproduces in Bugzilla OK: <!DOCTYPE article PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.2//EN" "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.2/docbookx.dtd" [ ]> <article> <procedure> <step> <title>Do something</title> <para>Some text</para> <para>Some more text</para> </step> </procedure> </article>
This is working properly. Closing.
Ticket moved to allow products to be removed from BZ.
