According to the TDG, bridgehead can appear inside variablelist. However, as far as I can see, it is only allowed _after_ the info element, but not between varlistentrys. Find here the content model: http://www.docbook.org/tdg5/en/html/variablelist.html This would be valid: <chapter xmlns="http://docbook.org/ns/docbook"; version="5.0"> <info><title>my chapter</title></info> <para> <variablelist> <bridgehead> testing my header </bridgehead> <varlistentry> <term>myterm</term> <listitem><para>definitions</para></listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry> <term>my second term</term> <listitem><para> more definitions</para></listitem> </varlistentry> </variablelist> </para> </chapter> However, in that case, bridgehead should be better replaced with title. Hope that helps. :) -- Gruß/Regards Thomas Schraitle --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
