This is normal English typesetting style. If you want no indentation,
see Document>Settings>Text Layout. If , contrary to everything any
typesetter will tell you, you nonetheless want the first paragraph
indented, get the indentfirst package and \usepackage{indentfirst} in
your Document>Settings>Preamble.
For what it's worth, I prefer no indentation. But that's just me.
I personally prefer no indentation what so ever. I like blocks of text with a
newline between paragraphs, but again that is just me. This typesetting style
is taking some getting used to.
You can have the no indentation style very easily. See
Document>Settings>Text Layout.
4) when I test the resulting file for w3 validation it tests as valid, but I
get warnings about NET-enabling start-tag requires SHORTTAG YES on As I
understand this the is for XHTML and not HTML so why is this here?
This has nothing to do with LyX and everything to do with whatever HTML
converter you are using. See Tools>Preferences>Converters, and look for
HTML to see what you're using.
htlatex $$i is the converter listed, but looking at my directory structure I think it is MiKTeX 2.7.
Then htlatex is the one being used. It probably got installed by MikTeX.
This package has known problems on Windows, or at least did until
recently. You might well try a different one.
