| <para>If non-zero, <tag>variablelist</tag>s will be formatted as |
| tables. A processing instruction exists to specify a particular width for the |
| column containing the <tag>term</tag>s: |
| <tag class="xmlpi">dbhtml term-width=".25in"</tag></para> |
| |
| <para>You can override this setting with a processing instruction as the |
| child of <tag>variablelist</tag>: <tag class="xmlpi">dbhtml |
| list-presentation="table"</tag> or <tag class="xmlpi">dbhtml |
| list-presentation="list"</tag>.</para> |
| |
| <para>This parameter only applies to the HTML transformations. In the |
| FO case, proper list markup is robust enough to handle the formatting. |
| But see also <parameter>variablelist.as.blocks</parameter>.</para> |
