[sword-devel] OSIS headings, divs and libsword

[Troy A. Griffitts]

Well, if your example is representative of your entire module-- that the
preverse div only contains a title, then the answer is simply transform:

<div type="x-milestone" subType="x-preverse" sID="pv1613"/>
<div sID="gen1714" type="section"/>
<title>Intinn Ghlan sa Déirc</title>
<div type="x-milestone" subType="x-preverse" eID="pv1613"/>

to:

<div sID="gen1714" type="section"/>
<title>Intinn Ghlan sa Déirc</title>

I don't believe we have ever release a version of the engine which
supported <div type="x-preverse">, only <title type="x-preverse">

But actually the type="x-preverse" shouldn't even be required.  osis2mod
add this for the engine:

<title>The Word</title>

<verse osisID="John.1.1">
In the beginning was the Word...
</verse>

Should be transformed by osis2mod to:

$$$John.1.1
<title type="x-preverse">The Word</title>
In the beginning was the Word...


Hope this is useful.  osis2mod does its best to support a full range of
OSIS markup, but still need to be expanded to handle more.
