XHTML and nested lists

[guest]

XHTML transitional requires <ul><li>abc<ul><li>one</li><li>two</li></ul></li></ul>

instead of:

<ul><li>abc</li><ul><li>one</li><li>two</li></ul></ul>

to validate. I think it's rather stupid, but hey, it's the spec. Xinha produces the latter.

This appears to be the browser behaviour for execCommand 'indent' (at least in Firefox, havn't checked IE) not the doing of Xinha.

I think realistically that this would be quite difficult to work around in a useful manner, on the face of it, it seems simple, but then you think about what happens when you "outdent" something in the middle of an indented list, you now have to break the list in two and put the one outdented somewhere and..... oh boy.

A job for an "XHTML Output" plugin maybe.
