+<para>If non-zero, <tag>variablelist</tag>s will be formatted as
+tables. A processing instruction exists to specify a particular width for the 
+column containing the <tag>term</tag>s:   
+<tag class="xmlpi">dbhtml term-width=".25in"</tag></para>
+
+<para>You can override this setting with a processing instruction as the
+child of <tag>variablelist</tag>: <tag class="xmlpi">dbhtml
+list-presentation="table"</tag> or <tag class="xmlpi">dbhtml
+list-presentation="list"</tag>.</para>
+
+<para>This parameter only applies to the HTML transformations. In the
+FO case, proper list markup is robust enough to handle the formatting.
