OO plugin and strong

[Jason End <be...@yahoo.com>]

I'm having a problem with OO files displaying strong
(bold) elements in the rendered forrest pages. The
style works correctly in the vanilla sample document.
But if I edit the sample and add my own text, setting
part of it to bold, the text appears without that
format.

The html source marks the text as:
<span class="T1">my super bold text</span>

instead of strong.

I'm not sure if this is related to:
http://issues.cocoondev.org/browse/FOR-433

I applied that patch but it still didn't work.

Is bold working for anyone?

I just had a look at the plugin and it does not work. This can be seen 
on the Impress demo. The problem is that this support was always a bit 
of a hack that required style information to embedded in the head. 
Instead there should be a match that generates a stylesheet from the OOo 
files (unless one already exists on disk). Most of the work for this is 
already in the plugin, it just needs separating out into its own XSL and 
matcher.

Please raise an issue for us against the 0.7 release.

If you fancy tackling this I'll do my best to walk you through it.

It worked for me last time I worked with these plugins. However, the 
above patch may have broken this.

In your generated HTML files is there any style information in the head 
of the document?
