Maybe I misunderstand, but I don't agree. You code for structure in DocBook, but you need the formatting handled externally: in a CSS file for HTML, and a ConTeXt environment/module (I'm not clear on the difference) for PDF via ConTeXt. If not, you lose flexibility. Like I say, though, perhaps I am missing your point... Bruce
