I wasn't happy with the way function parameters were being layed in HTML out by boostbook. In particular, the "Parameters" heading is <p class="title">, which is too bold -- it overwhelms the presentation. Also, the param name and description are on different lines, making it harder to read and take up too much screen real estate.


I found the following changes to the CSS vastly improves the look of parameter lists. Maybe this can be integrated into the official version?

div.variablelist p.title
{
    font: bold 100% sans-serif;
}

div.variablelist dl dt
{
    float: left;
    clear: left;
    width: 10%;
    font-style: italic;
}

For an example, see the parameter list at:
