[publican-list] sect3 weirdness with page breaks?

[Misty Stanley-Jones]

Hi Jeremy,

It is much better in the long term to simply use <section> exclusively. Infinite <section> tags can be nested, and this makes your document more modular and easier to arrange in the future. It may give you output closer to what you expect, as well.  I realize that this doesn't answer your question, and I can't speak to whether this is a bug or not (perhaps someone else can), because I don't use the <sectX> tags myself.

Thanks,
Misty

Subject: [publican-list] sect3 weirdness with page breaks?

I am brand new to creating docbook files, however, I believe I have done 
things correctly. I have:

<chapter id="stack-words">
<title>Stack Words</title>
<sect1>
      ...
<sect2>
<sect3>...
<sect2>
<sect3>...

On the first sect2, all sect3's appear on the same page. When I get to 
the bottom of the sect3 list (about 20) under the first sect2, then it 
wants me to go to a new page (normal). However, once it goes to a new 
page, each and every sect3 of the next set is on it's own page.

You can see this at:

         http://www.josl.org/manual/en-US/html/stack-words.html

The file that is responsible for that HTML is:

         http://www.josl.org/manual/Chapter_Stack.xml

Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug in publican?
