Based on that I've updated <a href="http://crosswire.org/wiki/OSIS_Bibles#Marking_poetic_material" target="_blank">http://crosswire.org/wiki/OSIS_Bibles#Marking_poetic_material</a>.<br> <br> I checked the SWORD and JSword renderers and they don't do indentation based upon level. I think it would be simple to add. I'll do it for JSword, but I don't have the time to do it for SWORD. It looks like a couple of lines to osishtmlhref.cpp and osisrtf.cpp.</blockquote> <div>It may not quite that simple... without css, I'm not sure how you can do indentations easily in html (blockquotes? &nbsp;s?). BPBible currently extends the wxHTML parser to add some new tags and then it is easy. I should be able to make BPBible use the level attribute very easily.</div></div></blockquote><div><br></div>OK. Since you have implemented it, I'll take your word that it is not straightforward.</div><div><br></div><div>For JSword, we use CSS for all styling of the generated html. That html is somewhat ugly in that it is very old HTML and does not recognize elements such as <span>, which we'd use to mark inline text for a style. Instead we use <font> for the same purpose in this fashion:</div><div><font class="line">text of line</font>.</div><div>So now it would become something like:</div><div><font class="line indent2">text of line at level="2"</font></div><div><br></div><div>The CSS would probably set margin-left or padding-left to so many ems.</div><div><br></div><div>If we didn't do that we could use mediawikis encoding of ':' which uses <dl><dd> to do the indentation as in:</div><div><br></div><div><div><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd>As above, subject is "Poetry and indented lines", date is 11/04/08.
