I've tried to code an inline list with 4 columns, but the (a) is sunken. The HTML is here https://community.plu.edu/~sklarjk/ptx/ptx/appendix-1.html (it's the hidden solution to Exercise 1) and the code is:
 <solution>
    <p>     
    <ol  cols="4" type="a">
      <li>Y</li>    
      <li>N</li>
      <li>Y (it's <m>\Q</m>)</li>
      <li>Y (it's <m>\emptyset</m>) </li> 
    </ol>
</p>
  </solution>

Probably I can fix that, but I see that list appearing twice
in the knowl. I'd want that to be addressed before I
fiddle with the layout.

I see an empty p in that knowl (before the ol).
I'd also like that removed before addressing the layout.

Sorry, that was another test.  Here is the current code and the current output:


     
   
<ol  cols="4" type="a">
     
<li>Y</li>    
     
<li>N</li>
     
<li>Y (it's <m>\Q</m>)</li>
     
<li>Y (it's <m>\emptyset</m>) </li>
   
</ol>



 
</solution>

I am guessing this is the same as this issue,
which is pretty high up on my list to fix:

Nothing you can do until I fix the css.

Ok, thanks.  Is there somewhere we should look to see when the fix happens?

I'll post to the group when I think it is fixed, and then
you can check.

Don't use \mbox{} within "me" or similar, you'll likely get weirdness.

Use \text{} and do not put math inside that. In otjher words go

x\text{ not equal to }4

Note where the spaces are.

I think it is documented, can you try to find it to be sure?

Jessica,

I fixed some examples of columns looking funny, but the link you gave
(https://community.plu.edu/~sklarjk/ptx/ptx/appendix-1.html)
no longer contains the exercise with the 4-list answer.

Please post a working link so that I can see if it was fixed.

David

I apologize.  Here is the link:
The list is in the solution to the first problem.

Okay, fixed. It was a completely different problem than the
other issue with 4-column lists.

Sorry, Rob, I just saw your note about \text{}. It's certainly implied here:
though I don't know if it's introduced by itself anywhere. 

I did figure out (I think from looking at the sample article) that \mbox{} should be replaced by \text{}; the \mbox's just translated over from my LaTeX and I'm still removing them and making similar fixes.
