Ah, OK. I was going to ask you about the formatting of <ulink>.
I have <ulink>s surrounding parts of the text contents of <para>
elements. I also have <ulink>s surrounding the contents of
the <title> elements in <biblioentry> elements.
In HTML both renders as hyperlinks.
In PDF (formatted by Fop), the contents of the <title> elements
becomes HTTP hyperlinks in acroread, while the <ulink>s in
<para> have the contents of their url attributes displayed.
Is this a feature, or a bug?
The behaviour I would expect, is that a <ulink> without content
will display its url attribute, in a nicely formatted way, while
a <ulink> with content becomes an external hyperlink in PDF...?
This is DocBook XSL 1.48.

I'll do that, once I understand what it is I want...:-)
