Re: Nested Bulleted Lists Problem
Just occurs to me your starting point is HTML so your mileage will definitely
vary. Sorry.

Hi Terence -
Thank you for your quick response! I thought I tried that as well,

Thanks,

Do a Google search for 'HTML 2 FO' or similar and you'll find a number
of solutions. For example Antenna House publishes a free HTML to FO
conversion stylesheet, i.e. on
http://www.antennahouse.com/XSLsample/XSLsample.htm you see a link to
http://www.antennahouse.com/XSLsample/sample-xsl-xhtml2fo/xhtml2fo.xsl
half way down the page in the section titled Stylesheet for XHTML to
XSL-FO transformation.
Re: Nested Bulleted Lists Problem
First of all, let me just say that this mailing list is awesome! I can't thank you all enough for all of your help - I really appreciate it. Yes, sadly I'm going from HTML and, worse, I'm going from HTML that I can't control. In fact, this particular issue is the result of HTML produced by an HTML control: ckEditor. I have a lot to go on here, and I'm continuing to mess with the XSLT. If I can get it to work, I'll reposted here so, hopefully, someone else can benefit. I will also reach out to ckSource because I don't believe what they're producing is valid HTML either.

Re: Nested Bulleted Lists Problem
the folks on this ML may be awesome, but keep in mind that the content of your thread has little to do with FOP and mostly to do with XSLT; although FOP provides a convenience function for ingesting XML along with an XSLT stylesheet, that isn't the primary function of FOP, which is formatting XSL-FO content; in the future, it would be better to pursue XSLT questions on MLs that focus on XSLT functionality On Sat, Apr 5, 2014 at 1:09 PM, a3leggeddog s...@3ldinc.com wrote: First of all, let me just say that this mailing list is awesome!

Re: Nested Bulleted Lists Problem
Think of it as one list, with various indents and bullet-types according to the nestedness of your input.
