otf: Thank you this change did it! And for those stumbling on the same
problem. If you can to reverse to regular spacing inside a particular
<td> use:
..
<span style="word-spacing: 0.0em">text segment with single spaces as
separator</span>

otf: Actually my, still under dev. with typos and errors, page:
..
http://www.geocities.com/tekmonk2005/X2L/ArtPhons18_XHML_Strict.html
..
did validate as XHML version 1.0 Strict (of course without the
geocities junk)

I am not a designer myself (and I hope this is not illegal around here
;-)), so I usually have a hard time making things look acceptably. This
page looks good enough, to me ;-), so I will keep working on its
content for now. I would however welcome all tips and opinions.
..
I have two questions though (which you can see in the TODO section of
the html doc):
..
._ how do you list indentation in a way that it should cascade so that
if an encompassing item is V. the next sub-item should be. say, V.i.
and so forth?
..
._ how do you rid the "Document encoding" table of the outer border?
..
._ I haven't found a way to make tidy freaking keep the hexadecimal
encodings of especial characters. I am running it like:
sh-3.00# tidy -file errs.txt -clean -asxml -access 3 -latin1 -indent
-wrap 120 -output output.html <page2b_tidied>.html
it just substitutes them for numeric ones, which does not work well
for me.
Thanks
otf
