[sword-devel] Small problem with section headers in an OSIS module

I just built from the release, so osis2mod is the 1.5.11 release
version. (Rev 2169 is what osis2mod shows.)

Well, I think this gives a definite clue. Thank you, Chris, for your
instructions. I am providing 2 snippets from the output of mod2imp.
The first shows a section heading associated with John 1; the second
shows a section heading associated with John 17. What immediately
jumps out is that the <div> tag precedes the <title> in the first
case, but follows it in the second. I presume that the <div> tag is
introducing a newline that ends up getting displayed after the verse
number. Is the verse number being generated along with the title? Also
I'm guessing that the switched orders might have to do with the
influence of "verse zero", but that's a shot in the dark.

Note: I deleted all the attributes of the <w> tags to shorten things
up, so in that respect this isn't pristine mod2imp output. I doubt
that matters...


By the way, just to get this into the archives in case anyone else
is/will be banging their head against a similar problem: Until
recently, I could only get section headings to display as part of the
verse text (between the verse number and the first word of the verse).
The problem was that I had forgotten to add
``GlobalOptionFilter=OSISHeadings'' to the .conf file. Problem solved.
