Several years ago, you were talking about getting "Simpler XHTML output" (initiating thread can be found at http://www.cygwin.com/ml/docbook-apps/2005-q2/msg00230.html). The whole discussion broached in accessibility and CSS layout, instead of tables layout.
Bob may correct me, but AFAIK docbook doesn't use table based layout
and any CSS additions are the authors, not a part of the standard
docbook formatting, though provision is made for CSS usage.


I don't know how it goes for general layout, but I am absolutely sure a table layout is used for QandAset (what I wanted for my first DocBook). This is why I spent a whole day to search how I could resolve this. I used the 5.0 XSLT and it seems it processes pretty much as the 4.x do. I had a glimpse in the XSLT2 snapshot, and I didn't find a XHTML output in this release. Maybe is it still automatically generated from the HTML one? I am not sure it is the best way, for transitional HTML and strict XHTML have few things in common.

Moreover, the QandAset is rendered with definition lists (<dl></dl>) instead of ordered lists (<ol></ol>), which makes me puzzled...



It seems you started a new project: to make a brand new forked XHTML XSL. What is the current step of this project? Is it still undergoing or as it been abandoned? For many reasons, I am very interested in getting semantical, CSS styled XHTML output.

So are many of us, which is why we choose docbook!



Maybe am I wrong and then, could you tell me how I can get a "pure", table-less output?

Thanks.
