Hi,
When the lists with spaces in some (but not all) elements are exported
to HTML, they result in unattractive spacing. This is due to the use of
paragraph tags in some list elements, which cause large spaces between
some list elements but no spaces between others.
I believe something should be done to ensure consistent spacing in the
HTML export of list elements. I'd suggest that every list element
should be wrapped in a paragraph tag, but maybe a different solution is
more appropriate.
For example, the following Org-mode.

Actually, there's a special case in ox-html.el (see line 2960) that
prevents the first paragraph in an item to get <p> tag. I guess that
this rule is meant for short lists, e.g.,
- item 1
- item 2
where you do not want a new paragraph for each item. So, the special
case could be extended to also check if there's another element in the
item before ignoring the tags.

Setting the spacing for paragraphs within a list in the CSS seems much
easier. Besides, the content of a list item is conceptually a paragraph
(the first one if there are more), so it shouldn't need to be wrapped
anyway.

Achim.

I disagree, editing CSS shouldn't be required for reasonable default
list spacing on HTML export.

This sounds like the best approach. The attached patch implements this
change, if it looks good I'll go ahead and apply it to master.

You need to start with a capital and a final period.
Also, it could be merged with the comment below. E.g., "Paragraphs have
no tag when any item in current list is either empty or consist of
a single paragraph."
> + (let ((gp (org-export-get-parent parent))
Since you only use it once, you don't need to bind it. Just use it in
`org-element-map':
(org-element-map (org-export-get-parent parent) 'item ...)

This is not sufficient, as an item could contain a single center block
with many paragraphs within. IOW you also need to check the type of the
single element. We also need to accept empty items.
Moreover, the item could contain another element not exported (i.e.
a comment), but I guess that would go a bit too far.
Also, note that `org-element-map' has a mechanism to exit early
(argument FIRST-MATCH), so you can avoid mapping over all items if you
already know that one of them doesn't contain a single paragraph.
I think the following should do the job:
(not (org-element-map (org-export-get-parent parent) 'item
(lambda (item)
(let ((contents (org-element-contents item)))
(and contents
(or (cdr contents)
(not (eq (org-element-type (car contents)) 'paragraph))))))
info 'first-match 'item))
> ;; Leading paragraph in a list item have no tags.
See above.

You can disagree all you want, that doesn't make the underlying problem go
away. The reason for the "unattractive spacing" is that list items, while
conceptually paragraphs, do not have additional spacing after them so the
list becomes more compact. The W3C doesn't really encourage to use lists
with paragraphs, but if you do (like Org), an explicit paragraph inside a
list environment either should also not have that spacing or should have it
at the beginning (in which case the first paragraph must be implicit). So
you'll have to modify the CSS anyway or the lists are still having ugly
spacing. Your patch only makes it consistently ugly as soon as there is a
single explicit paragraph needed.
Regards,
Achim.

So, would a better solution be to remove the patch and tweak default CSS
so it provides better spacing for paragraphs in <li> tags?

I pretty much agree w/ Achim. Lists are in general meant to be compact
and have short content. But given that lists are often "abused" to
contain paragraph text, perhaps a better approach would be to wrap
anything in a list element longer than <X> (2 lines, ~160 characters?)
in a paragraph (or multiple if required) and change the default css to
only paragraph space _between_ paragraphs in list elements (i.e., after
all but the last paragraph, or before all but the first.)

My browser (recent Firefox) *does* place extra spacing around list
elements with paragraphs (with no CSS). I assume this is standard. So
regardless of what browsers should do, Org-mode should handle what they
actually do.

I think consistency here is a win. Maybe adding another rule to the
Org-mode default CSS would make the situation even better, but
personally I'm happy with the current look.

That's what I was saying, or at least trying to. Let's look at the
following document:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
* Lists w/ parapraphs
** without paragraphs
- some
- short
- list
- entries
This is after the list.
** with paragraphs
- some
- short
- list
- and a long entry
with an extra paragraph.
Plus a second one.
- short entry
This is after the list.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
So, the standard CSS in the browser (which you can totally change at
least in Firefox) keeps list items together. If it finds a paragraph in
the item, it adds paragraph spacing at the top and bottom. If you put
an explicit first paragraph, then spacing will be added both above and
below that list item. Begin and end of list seems to be handled
specially, but that is only a result of the margins applied to the list
element itself having the same (or larger) value as the ones for the
paragraph collapsing into the largest of these.

If you have truly long paragraphs that may be the case. If there's only
one or two list items that don't fit on a single line, then this looks
horrible. I still think you'd want to keep the list items separated
without extra margin and just add some extra space before explicit
paragraphs in a list (typographically an indentation would be
preferrable, but that doesn't look nice if there are consecutive
paragraphs that only span a single line).
That means the first paragraph should preferrably be implicit and
there should be an extra CSS rule
li>p { margin: .3em 0em 0em 0em /* or 1em for indent */; }
If your patch is kept, the CSS actually gets more complicated and needs
an extra
li>p:first-child {margin: 0em; }
which is probably not recognized by older browsers.
Regards,
Achim.
