Where did you get this? HTML is a very poor format for presentation.
If you want to specify presentation for a tool like xmosaic you need
something as powerful as tex or latex. HTML will never be capable of
that flexibility. HTML is only reasonable if the presentation client
decides how to actually format the document.
