As threatened, I have started preparing a CSS file that will allow TEI files, at least PG-TEI files, to be displayed natively in a web browser....
interesting work, lee...
To test the CSS file, I grabbed Mr. Perathoner's version of _Alice in Wonderland_ from http://www.gutenberg.org/tei/marcello/0.3/examples/alice/
oh, so we _are_ doing alice after all. great! i'll dig out my z.m.l. copy, for a comparison... :+) i'll also continue the work i was sharing on jon noring's "my antonia" scan-set example, as the new openreader guy (nee thoutreader) has created an example using that content, if you'd like to go head-to-head on that too. and i helped a new friend put together his book for project gutenberg, so we'll have that to use as an example as well, if you wanna mark it up. plus, if you'd want to explore the gamut, lee, rather than just dabble with the simple stuff, i once created a test-suite containing all the features that are found across the p.g. library. you could be the first to mark that up in x.m.l. looks like we're finally getting real, folks... let us once again give thanks to all the people who have volunteered their time to scan books and proof the results. without their ingredients, none of us could be making any of our pudding. and then we'll be off to the races...
fixed a small number of abuses of the [p] tag, and changed the tag for block-style quotations from [q] to [quote].
my analysis shows you also did the footnotes differently, and moved some punctuation inside emphasis boundaries, noted here just because you wanna record all the changes that you made to the file so you will remember next time... -bowerbird p.s. lee, your x.m.l. file starts out fairly nicely in safari (v1.2.3), but changes its look at chapter 2, and then bombs out entirely when it gets to:
her voice sounded hoarse and strange, and the words did not come the same as they used to do:
p.p.s. looks fine in firefox 1.0.5. p.p.p.s. your x.m.l. has a capitalization error in the "chapter" markup for chapter 8, which makes it display incorrectly...
