[bd-users] Bug reports

[Brian J. Dumont]

Hi all,

I'm new to this list; I generally use gnomesword.  I've put together a
number of modules recently, and have found two bugs in BD that affect
ThML-based genbooks.

In particular, there are a two tags which are valid ThML, but cause
internal errors in BD.  In particular, they are the <verse> tag (which
is specifically ThML), and the <cite> tag (which is carried over from
the html DTD).  When the user navigates to a <div> section which
includes either of these elements, they are presented with the following
error dialog:

    An error has occurred:
    Unexpected internal problem.  You may need to restart.

    This was caused by:
    org.jdom.Text cannot be cast to org.jdom.Element

I can provide a sample ThML file which highlights the issue, if it would
help.  I have verified:

   1. This happens in BD under Windows or Linux
   2. This does not happen using (non-j)sword-based viewers: BT, GS,
      Sword for Windows
   3. I can change the behavior by simply removing the <cite> tag or the
      <verse> tag without changing anything else
   4. The files in question pass an xml validity test against the ThML
      DTD using xmllint

Is there anything else that might help to track this bug?

In Christ,
Brian
