variablelist.as.table boolean variablelist.as.table Format variablelists as tables? If non-zero, variablelists will be formatted as tables. A processing instruction exists to specify a particular width for the column containing the terms: dbhtml term-width=".25in" You can override this setting with a processing instruction as the child of variablelist: dbhtml list-presentation="table" or dbhtml list-presentation="list". This parameter only applies to the HTML transformations. In the FO case, proper list markup is robust enough to handle the formatting. But see also variablelist.as.blocks. <variablelist> <?dbhtml list-presentation="table"?> <?dbhtml term-width="1.5in"?> <?dbfo list-presentation="list"?> <?dbfo term-width="1in"?> <varlistentry> <term>list</term> <listitem> <para> Formatted as a table even if variablelist.as.table is set to 0. </para> </listitem> </varlistentry> </variablelist>
