Improved support for Google Chrome, Safari and other web browsers

Improved support for Google Chrome, Safari and other web browsers

The current HTML codes generated by "...for Web" and "...for EPUB" are currently not supported by several major browsers.

This is particulary annoying on Google's Chrome browser and on Ipads (Safari). The Ipad problem is important, as this is an important channel for our product information. HTML outputs have also been tested on Android devices with sad results.

It is a sdad fact that the XML to HTML conversion creates a very cumbersome HTML code. As an example, one *single* <listitem> line with a reference is coded like this in HTML:

<table cellpadding="0" class=" x--listitem-as-table x-listitem-9-0 x--zero-left-margins" style="table-layout: fixed; ">

<col style="width: 0em">

<col style="width: 14.173228pt">

<col>

<tbody>

<tr valign="baseline">

<td align="right"></td>

<td align="left" style="word-break: keep-all; ">• </td>

<td><span class=" x-para-4-0"><span class=" x-xref-1-0"><span class=" x--sfe-CrossReference-1-0"><a href="xxx_opproc_calibration.html#xxx_opproc_calibration"> <span class=" x--sfe-CrossReferenceTitle-2-0">Preparations for ME70 calibration</span></a></span></span></span></td>

</tr>

</tbody>

</table>

In general I do not mind "bad" HTML coding when it comes from an automatic generator, but when the code does not work on several major browsers you need to do something with it. It simply looks bad...

This must be improved.
