Thanks DM. So I found this page (again)! <a href="http://www.crosswire.org/~dmsmith/interlinear/">http://www.crosswire.org/~dmsmith/interlinear/</a><div><br></div><div><a href="http://www.crosswire.org/~dmsmith/interlinear/"></a>And managed to replicate (and solve?) the issues I found originally when I looked at it before:</div>
<div><br></div><div>1st When lines in the interlinear only have 1 line (i.e. no 2nd/3rd or 4th line). As a result, when the text wraps, it floats below the first line. As a hack (although on could argue that there is an empty spot there, rather than nothing), I think we can put a <span>&nbsp;</span> or we could use a height maybe? (not quite so good, unless we specify in ems and exs). And the second thing is that within a particular word stack, the words might wrap. I believe this particular issue is only visible in IE. For IE 8, the fix is to put a whitespace: nowrap CSS directive. Not sure if that helps on IE6 and 7 though? Spec says it should be supported on both browsers.</div>

The solution uses spans with their display set to block.<br><font color="#888888">

<blockquote type="cite">DM, you said you might have an intearlinear model that

found that in fact I used tables. I think I struggled for quite a
while to get a model working across browsers using DIVs, but none
of them seemed to wrap properly at the end of the line. But
unfortunately table layouts are slow and therefore it would be
better to have divs.

we can do more than that too. If other Bible versions have
strong numbers and/or morphology tags, then we can put those
in parallel, and end up having French with English
"subtitles", or English with English, as well as English
with Greek, etc.
<div>
<br>
</div>
<div>So I've had a look at the framework so far and it seems
fairly easy not to use Bible Desktop components and have a
good XSLT transformation. So all we would need to add is
some helpers that users can easily integrate into their
XSLTs. It would nice to have some sample XSLs for people
to use. So for example, I've had to strip out all the CSS
and font tags from the Bible Desktop one so as to produce
a good XHTML compliant one. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Say we give the XSLT a InterlinearProvider initialised
with its version and passage, as it parses the
strong/morph option we can then call get($provider,
@strong, @morph), which would in turn optionally return
the correct words (or best word since sometimes you may
have multiple options in modules tagged with strong
numbers only. In fact it would be better to have something
like get($provider, osis_verse_id, @strong, @morph). Since
then, if we don't have the morphology of the word, at
least we can limit the lookups to those words that are
tagged in a particular verse (that assumes that
versification is comparable between versions).</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We'll want to add options to have tagged information
displayed on the side of a word/phrase or below a
word/phrase. At the moment the XSLT displays morph and
strong tags next to the text. I'll add some
transformations to have it on separate lines. Then we can
reuse the same transformations to line up text beneath
it. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>DM, I had a look at <span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;border-collapse:collapse">"flying
saucer" , but didn't quite understand where it comes in?
Would the idea be instead of the XSLT? And have it
transform to different UIs?</span></div>

Yes it would be nice to have this under JSword
instead of BIbleDesktop<br>
