Changes to the html4css1 writer
===============================

* Use only meta keywords recognized by HTML 5.

* Set table column widths with <style="width: ...">, not "width" argument.

* Horizontal alignment of table heads with CSS.

* Field lists as styled definition lists.

* Do not drop paragraph objects, use CSS rules to prevent unwanted vertical
  space.

* Put subtitles in <p> elements.

Field list handling
-------------------

The following list demonstrates the problems with the html4css1
approach: the `field-name-limit` setting is given in "number of
characters" but the field name uses a proportional font.

:The field name:  is typeset on the same line, unless it is "long".

:this field name: is considered "long" in the html table rendering by
                  the html4css1 writer with the default setting of
                  ``--field-name-limit=14``.

:iiiiiiiiiiiiiii: a field name that is considered "long" by html4css1
                  with the default setting of `field-name-limit: 14`.

:MMMMMMMMMMMMMM: a field name that is actually longer than the
                 previous one but regarded "short" by html4css1.

With ``html_plain``, a `field list` is typeset as CSS-styled `definition
list`. The default layout is similar to the look with `html4css1`:

.. class:: open

:A long field name: sticks into the field body.

                The field body is pushed to the next line (you can suppress
                this behaviour with the `run-in`_ class argument).

:Customization: of the field name width is possible with CSS instead
                of the `field-name-limit` configuration setting, for
                example::

                    dl.field-list > dd { margin-left: 6em; }

:Empty:

:fields:       must not lead to misalignment of the following content.

Styling with class arguments
----------------------------

The ``plain.css`` style sheet comes with some pre-defined style variants
that can be choosen via a class argument.

Description lists
`````````````````

Definition lists with the "description" class argument:

.. class:: description

description lists
  Definition lists that are styled like in most dictionaries,
  encyclopedias etc. (as well as the LaTeX `description` environment).
label
  The term to be described. Put in boldface.
content
  Starts on the same line and has a hanging indent.

Field list variants
```````````````````

For field lists, the "compact/open", "narrow" and "run-in" styles are defined
in the style sheet ``plain.css``.

*compact*
  .. class:: compact

  :Feature: No additional space between list items.

  :Option: The ``--compact-field-lists`` command line option (and the
           corresponding configuration setting) set the `compact`
           class argument on all "simple" field lists, if not
           overridden with `open`.

  :Use:  For lists with short field body.

*open*
  .. class:: open

  :Feature: Additional space between list items also in "simple" lists.
            (Overrides the ``--compact-field-lists`` command line
            option and the corresponding configuration setting)

  :Use: For "simple" lists that should keep the space between list items.

*narrow*
  .. class:: narrow

  :Feature: Less indented field body.
  :Use:   For lists with short field names.
  :A long field name:
       sticks into the field body and the field body starts on a
       new line (if not combined with `run-in`_).

.. _`run-in`:

*run-in*
  .. class:: run-in

  :Feature: Field body starts on the same line also after long field
            names.

  :A long field name: sticks into the field body which continues on
                         the same line.

  :The next field name:  and field body should align. Long text in the field
                         body is wrapped and aligns with other fields.

Table variants
``````````````

The following styles can be applied to individual tables via a class
argument or as document wide setting with the table-style_ configuration
setting (or command line argument).

* Numbered tables can be achieved with the "numbered" class option:

  .. table:: truth values
     :class: numbered

     ======= ======= ==========
     A       B       A or B
     ======= ======= ==========
     False   False   False
     True    False   True
     False   True    True
     True    True    True
     ======= ======= ==========

  Currently, referencing to the table by number is not supported. This is a
  common request and already on the `TODO list`.

* A table with "booktabs" class value, is rendered similar to the style
  from the booktabs_ LaTeX package.

  .. _table-style:
     http://docutils.sourceforge.net/docs/user/config.html#table-style
  .. _booktabs:
     http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/booktabs/booktabs.pdf

"Booktabs" style table, numbered, centre-aligned, with auto-sized columns:

  .. table:: I/O values
     :class: booktabs numbered
     :align: center
     :widths: auto

     ======= ======= ==========
     Input           Output
     --------------- ----------
     A       B       A or B
     ======= ======= ==========
     False   False   False
     True    False   True
     False   True    True
     True    True    True
     ======= ======= ==========

Numbered Figures
````````````````

Numbered figures can be achieved with the "numbered" ``:figclass:`` option:

   .. figure:: ../../../docs/user/rst/images/title.svg
      :alt: reStructuredText, the markup syntax
      :figclass: numbered
   
      SVG image in a numbered figure.
