In any case sounds like a non-Org bug, but wanted. Thanks. Samuel -- The Kafka Pandemic: http://thekafkapandemic.blogspot.com The disease DOES progress. MANY people have died from it.

I'm not familiar with CSS enough to know here. It wouldn't come for free with the header code? Here is what it looks like in Firefox: === Footnotes: 1 asdfasdfadf. === I expected text after Footnotes (hmm, I should remove the colon if possible) to be like text after any other section. Thanks.

What is the foundation of your moral authority, except some non-existent property right? You have no property right to this code. On the other hand, we have the right not to be excluded from its use and enjoyment. The FSF papers are clear about this. This is how we function as a community. Please understand that we've placed our trust in Bastien and are confident that he will do right by us. He is clearly looking after our best interests by keeping ox-html in the tree. Sorry. The list has to learn to deal with me, even if that amounts to throwing the wares I have written out the window. We are not fools and won't throw out your code until it suits us. It works well and we intend to use and enjoy it for as long as it is useful and enjoyable. I hope you know that I admire your work and think you are a valuable member of our community. But, like the rest of us, you have to deal with the Org community, because it is the Org mode community, ever changing, that will shepherd the code you, many others, and (to a much lesser extent) I wrote. If we work well together on this magnificent idea, Org mode might outlive us all. Peace, Tom -- Thomas S. Dye http://www.tsdye.com

If this is indeed what is being discussed, then there is no reason to discuss it on the Org mode mailing list. Like every other person, you are free to alter the contents of that file as it pleases you. If you think your changes might benefit other users, and you are still willing to accept the structure of rights in the FSF papers, then you can send patches. The Org community, through its maintainer, Bastien, will do with your patches as it pleases. Alternatively, as Bastien pointed out a while back, you are free to fork Org mode and form your own FSF community of like-minded coders and users.

Re: [O] Fixing footnote HTML
Hi Bastien, Thanks for removing the table tags. It looks great in w3m. Much less confusing. For some reason, I am getting no blank lines between footnotes, and no blank lines between paragraphs in multi-paragraph footnotes. Any idea why? Tested in Firefox. I can try to dig up old exporter output if that will help, as that looked good. Samuel -- The Kafka Pandemic: http://thekafkapandemic.blogspot.com The disease DOES progress.

Probably all that needs to be done is to not use a table. I tested this by manually removing table td tr and their closing tags. I am referring to these: (defun org-html-format-footnote-definition (fn) (defun org-html-footnote-section (info) They output a table, which looks IMO very confusing in both w3m and Firefox. The old exporter worked fine. The solution IMO is to remove the table tags. It is preferable to introduce a footnote, preamble, postamble, toc, bibliography etc as pseudo-elements, with Footnotes and Bibliograph attachable to beginning or end of chapters. This way the HTML exporter can do some light-weight HTML transcoding. Folks can derive from this base HTML exporter and surround their content to heart's pleasure. See my other response to Rick, where I split current exporter to html and HTML backends and have him derive from html backend. I tested it in Firefox and w3m. Catering to one off requests - reading on w3m or export to HTML5, slidy, whatever etc - is exactly what the above pseudo-elements will avoid. People can add their own translators instead of relying on the base HTML exporter for one-off changes. I am sure Samuel will remind us infinitely if we forget about it. As an aside, I would like the following to be cleared before a release actually happens. 1. I would like to split the HTML exporter if pseudo-elements are made available to me. 2. I also want the CSS stylenames to be regularized and improved. 3. CSS stylesheets to be pulled out of the exporter so that one can have users contributing Org themes. A moving CSS stylenames will prevent proliferation of themes. 4. I want support for Htmlfontify as the default fontifier. Htmlize not being part of Emacs shouldn't be the default fontifier. What is mostly preventing me is my poor knowledge of HTML and CSS and my own laziness. ps: I would recommend that release happen just prior to a merge in to Emacs-24.4 and Emacs-25. Considering the requests that happen on HTML front, I feel that export tools can be improved in small and useful ways before freezing their base form. Samuel --
