The trouble is, it is currently not possible to wrap a section in a
<div> when you _do_ need it. At least, I tried to do this with @<div>
... @</div> and it produces incorrectly nested tags for the case when
an org heading is mapped onto an html list item (e.g., <div
class="foo"><li>Contents of org section</div></li>). This is because
the closing </div> is interpreted as being inside the section, rather
than outside it.

How would that work without divs? The problem is (I think) that
sometimes an org section is represented in html as a header plus
following text:

<h3>HEADER TEXT</h3>
<p>BODY TEXT</p>
<p>MORE BODY TEXT</p>

whereas sometimes it is represented as a list item:

<li>HEADER TEXT<br>BODY TEXT</li>.

So, in the first case one cannot apply a class to the whole section,
since there is no enclosing HTML element. In the second place, you
don't have that problem, but now it is impossible to apply a class to
just the header.

What would be nice would be if there was an option for (some) tags to
be applied as classes in the exported html.

Cheers

Will

I thing this ^^^ is good but should have the category name as a class
like this:

<h3 class="work">
  Header here
</h3>
<p class="work">
  normal text
</p>
<p class="work">
  some more text
</p>

<h3 class="school">
  Header here
</h3>
<p class="school">
  normal text
</p>
<p class="school">
  some more text
</p>

Also a div should be optional for those who need it, so the whole
category can be wraped in a <div class="category"></div> like this:


<div class="work">
  <h3 class="work">
    Header here
  </h3>
  <p class="work">
    normal text
  </p>
  <p class="work">
    some more text
  </p>
</div>

<div class="school">  
  <h3 class="school">
    Header here
  </h3>
  <p class="school">
    normal text
  </p>
  <p class="school">
    some more text
  </p>
</div>

Maybe by using a tag or something !


Cheers,
Cezar

Actually in this case, we don't need the class on each element, just the
div:

<div class="school">  
  <h3>
    Header here
  </h3>
  <p>
    normal text
  </p>
  <p>
    some more text
  </p>
</div>

Hi Cezar,

I am not sure if this is intended as being the answer on my request,
but it seems to be not.  What I would need to change this
is an agreed position between the people discussing here,
telling me exactly what I am not doing right yet in exporting
headlines and sections into HTML, if there should be classes,
what kind of classes, where exactly.

For example,

Yes exactly!  This is exactly how I view a header and a section.
I am coming from LaTeX, and this is how it works there.  A section
is not a closed element, instead it continues until the next section.
Is this different in HTML?  How is it different?  Please educate me
if you (or someone else) wants this differently.
