Re: [docbook-apps] Nested Itemized Lists

[Bela Hausmann <post@belahausmann.name>]

A nested itemizedlist/listitem should be within the main listitem, like so:

<itemizedlist>
  <listitem>
    item 1
    <itemizedlist>
      <listitem>
        item 1.1
      </listitem>
    </itemizedlist>
  </listitem>
  <listitem>
    item 2
  </listitem>
</itemizedlist>

(It’s the same in (X)HTML, if you are familiar with that)
