Under FC3/Firefox, the composed and decomposed forms show the same
behavior as under Firefox and WinXP. The composed has no problems. But
many of the accented characters are shorter. I guess that this makes
room for the accents. Under the decomposed form more letters have the
accents following.
Cool!
On WinXP SP2 under FireFox, the decomposed form shows some problems in
positioning the accent over the letter, but the accent is displayed. The
composed looks great.
On WinXP SP2 under IE, the decomposed form shows lots of accent
rendering problems, but each letter is there. In the compose

There are various contexts in which it makes sense to display individual
verses. E.g. Quotations. Also, in the context of search, individual
verses are returned. Adjacent verses may be merged into a passage. These
are then presented to the user. Different clients do it differently. For

Verification scheme is not easy to switch
as you think. I have tried to do that and finally I have to develop a
completely new verification scheme according to the Nova Vulgata numbering
system to include the Deuterocanical Books into my Bible program using the
SWORD code.
Hey guys,
I've spent some time cleaning up a module submitted by David
(dnr at crosswire dot org) which uses the base Westcott-Hort Accented
GNT from CCEL and merges in the morphology tags from Maurice Robinson's
WHNU text (our WHNU module). The result is an OSIS module that is fully

But knowing or not knowing the language *is* relevant
DM,
No, SWORD currently does no work to promise any retrievable segment of
text as valid markup. I have talked with a few XML experts and have had
a number of ideas brewing for the past few years how we might offer such
information, as it is a necessary obstacle to overcome.
The quest
I asked this earlier on another thread, but it was lost in the noise of
that thread.
Does Sword, in making a module, ensure (or try to ensure) that each
verse is well formed? That is, for every begin feature marker, there is
a corresponding end feature marker. In XML and ThML it would be a

Dear C.N.R,
Why html? - Try Zefania XML!!
But our credo ALSO is, the versification has to stay as found in the
source and how it a native reader would expect. ;-) .
A smart bible software should handle all tasks which are nessecary for
comperative reading. O:-)

It has been stated on this mailing list that v11n is a priority that
