Is there any support in the DocBook XSL stylesheets to break long lines in XHTML? I know it sounds strange. As ePub files are based on XHTML and there is no way to add a horizontal scrollbar (with CSS) to code examples with long lines it's unfortunately a requirement. In my ePub files which I created so far the long lines are simply cut off. Or does anyone know a preprocessor (on Windows) to reformat source code automatically (the source code is in separate files which are included)? Boris
Do you have a pretty-printer (source code reformatter) for the language being used? It might be simpler to run the original source code files thorugh a pretty-printer before wrapping them as DocBook <programlisting> elements. It is usually a good thing to do in any case, to make sure that the layout of the code is consistent. If you're using some element type other than <programlisting>, be sure to set xml:space="preserve". /s/ Ernest G. Allen
