Hi Ross,
thanks for your answer. I couldn't reply earlier.
Ross> That is the way the browser does it. The HTML code produced

Ross> <DL COMPACT> <DT> item name </DT> <DD> rest_of_text </DD>
Ross> Only if the item name has fewer than 5 characters does the
Ross> rest_of_text start on the same line.
I looked up the html3.2 and 4.0 definitions, but could not find this
information. Anyhow, my browser insist on rendering the <DD> on a new
line, even if the <DT> contains just two letters.
Ross> You may be able to change this behaviour using a stylesheet

yup that is possible. The clean solution would be to use the CLASS or
STYLE attribute, e.g.,
<DL CLASS=mydefliststyle>
which makes me wonder, whether there is a way to control the
attributes of a DL from within the latex source?
Cheers
Uli
