This has been nagging at me for a while.

In FPDoc the TH tag is treated as a table row. Unlike HTML, where its used to markup a table cell.I realize FPDoc XML is not supposed to be HTML, but you are re-purposing other tags using the standard markup.

I have to ask is this by design? You obviously have to translate it for HTML and CHM usage.

If it's not by design, there are a grand total of 15 files XML files in both FPC and Lazarus that use the TH tag. So, not a big issue to fix in XML source.

Just curious...

And all other formats.

I am not the original author of the fpdoc format, so I don't know whether it is by design or not.

I have also been surprised by the choice, but not enough to question it. It's just a convention, after all.

Probably not.

Though we don't know how many third party users there are (I think Graeme uses FPDoc as well?)
