There is another page for KF8 supported tags. It's at http://www.amazon.com/gp/feature.html?ie=UTF8&docId=1000729901

I believe it's a superset of the first link I sent.

Carlos,

Thanks for the pointer. That looks like a useful resource, though it's curious that <dl> only appears in the description of <dd>.

Best Regards,
