Re the GitHub issue

We discussed this at yesterday s TC meeting
we missed you, Frank! I asked whether anyone knew whether this had been discussed as part of LwDITA design, but no one present knew.


  Our general consensus was the following:



  The default value for the @placement attribute is inline, so it looks as if this DITA-OT plug-in is incorrectly handling LwDITA.
Folks authoring LwDITA content can always get the effect of placement= break  by enclosing an image in a <p> element.


  FYI
Just as we religiously respond to comments that come through the DITA comment list, I think we also need to respond to folks who attempt to communicate with the TC using GitHub issues. I ve added response to the GitHub issue, but
  did not close it.


  Best,
  Kris

Subject:  [oasis-tcs/dita-lwdita] Cannot create inline graphics in HTML5 output (Issue #60)


  Due to the limitations on LwDITA, every
<image>
element includes a trailing

<br>
element when the data is converted to HTML5 such as follows:
  DITA source

<p>The system has a malfunction. <image href=
height="29.000pt" width="42.999pt" /> (warning indicator: Yellow)</p>
  HTML5 output

<p class="p">The system has a malfunction. <img class="image" height="39" src=
width="57"><br> (warning indicator: Yellow)</p>
  It looks like this is due to no support for the
@placement
attribute in LwDITA. In the dita2html5 plugin, there is the following transformation in

 topic.xsl  (lines 1375 and 1376 in the Git repository):

<!-- build any post break indicated by style -->

<xsl:if test="not(@placement = 'inline')"><br/></xsl:if>
  Since there is no
@placement
attribute, this condition can never be true, and all images are rendered with a line break after essentially making inline images impossible.
