Right. Sorry, I haven't done much HTML the past while and have conveniently forgotten its many quirks. > Oh god, not the whitespace connundrum! ... but actually, could OpenJade > be made to distinguish between data or mixed content elements and block > elements in outputing its linefeeds?

Of course, a DTD like HTML, > which provides for pcdata anywhere at all, poses a problem; but then > whitespace is never significant in HTML except in the PRE element (and > some scripting elements), so HTML, specifically, could get newlines > anywhere except in pre. Not true. For example, there are differences among: <tag>abc</tag>, and <tag>abc</tag> , and <tag> abc </tag>, The mixed content problem is the single biggest issue (for me, at least) when pretty-printing HTML. --FAC DSSSList info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/dsssl/dssslist DSSSList info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/dsssl/dssslist
