Risking to become a pain in the a$$, let me repeat: DON'T mix presentational markup with structural! Provide a customization layer instead. Here is the general procedure: http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/dsssl/current/doc/custom.html and here is an example: http://www.karakas-online.de/mySGML/explain-dsssl-stylesheets.html In plain words: just copy the .dsl files mentioned in http://www.karakas-online.de/mySGML/explain-dsssl-stylesheets.html and do your changes there - i.e. use DSSSL to tell the processor (Openjade) to create a 'class="inlinemath"' attribute in the HTML tag of the rendered inline math image. Then take the CSS for DocBook http://www.karakas-online.de/mySGML/ck-style.css explained in http://www.karakas-online.de/myLinuxTips/css-for-docbook.html http://www.karakas-online.de/mySGML/explain-css.html and add a class selector for the "inlinemath" class. Add any inline math related HTML formatting there: .inlinemath { Put the formatting attributes here. } Follow a similar procedure for XML. A great help are the CSS tutorials in http://css.maxdesign.com.au which describe CSS very intuitively. Chris -- Regards Chris Karakas http://www.karakas-online.de
