HTML Workarounds

List Environments

  1. This is the first step in creating a list... bracket the region with open and close list icons.

  2. The second is to bracket each list item with a list type icon: OL for ordinal (1,2,3) lists or UL for bullets.

    Preformatted Regions

    --

    
To do preformatted text, you'll have to be 
    
careful. eText will insert PRE tags for the
    
icons, but will continute to tag fonts within
    
this block, like Courier (TT) and bold. So,
    
just use one font.
    

    
The trick to this block was making the Courier selection extend _outside_ the border of the two pre tags, up to the -- marks... this suppresses spurious <TT> tags.
    

    
But I can't do anything about <P>  tags.
    
Although, if you really feel desperate
    
this works       ^^^^^^

    Automating HTML Markup

    Finally, another long-term goal is to add these behaviors as built-in extensions to the eTLiteral class. See this example: HTML/IsIndexTag:

    Go Up (Parent):
    [Getting Started]
    See Also (Siblings):
    [XText Readme]
