<font face="FreeSerif">There's a serious glitch in handling of
<hi type="super">, evidently a typo, or perhaps a paste-o,
where <sup> opens but it is erroneously mis-closed with
</span>.<br>
<br>
Module ABP uses "super" heavily to indicate original Greek word
ordering, superscripting word index numbers. The repeating
sequence of controls around each word whose order has been changed
is<br>
<br>
<w><seg><hi type="super">...</hi></seg></w><br>
<br>
and you can see from the examples below that the result is a lot
of <sup> with a bunch of following </span> where
</sup> was clearly intended. It makes for a really funky
display in Xiphos:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://ftp.xiphos.org/sword/xiphos/ABP-super-fail.jpg">http://ftp.xiphos.org/sword/xiphos/ABP-super-fail.jpg</a><br>
<br>
I have a bug report against it, but it's manifestly not a Xiphos
bug, it's an engine error.<br>
