Thanks

Yup - the infamous bracket matcher that won't die raises it's head
again.

Could you e-mail me an example privately - I don't see any code blocks 
with trailing &nbsp;'s

Are there any? Again, if you could e-mail the example.

That's fairly hard to do automatically. For now, I'm afraid some
examples will have to scroll.

This reference section is generated automatically from the book. As
