IA: Multiple DL Elements Merged into Single DL Element

ID: Q145630

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Internet Assistant for Word, version 2.0z
Microsoft Word for Windows 95, version 7.0
Microsoft Word for Windows NT, version 6.0

SYMPTOMS

When you export an HTML document that contains a series of definition list elements, Internet Assistant merges them into a single definition list element. This behavior may alter how your page is displayed in your browser.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Internet Assistant for Word, version 2.0z. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

WORKAROUND

Use one of the following methods to correct your definition list markup:

Method 1: Insert an empty paragraph, formatted in the normal style

          between each definition list element. When you save the
          document, this paragraph will be inserted between each
          definition list element, thereby preserving your definition
          list structure.

Method 2: Use a text editor, such as Notepad, to modify your HTML

          markup.
