The problem with composer is the way it gets confused about nested bullets and list items, and the way it reformats the html. A friend of mine suggested I use cascading style sheets to format the web pages, which is more line with the XML concept than standard html. I'll check out some tutorials on it and then decide if i can tackle the loci pages that way. Would I be correct to assume that the html generation technology that we adopt will be used for TOL pages as well? --Gary =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Gary Van Domselaar gvd at redpoll.pharmacy.ualberta.ca Faculty of Pharmacy Phone: (780) 492-4493 University of Alberta FAX: (780) 492-5305 Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
