Subject: =over/=item combination with plain =item does not result in indentation of the contents
Specifically: =head1 plain items =over 4 =item thing 1 =item thing 2 =back results in entirely unindented output.

In what format? Looks good as text: perl -MPod::Simple::Text -E 'Pod::Simple::Text->filter(\"=head1 plain items\n\n=over 4\n\n=item thing 1\n\n=item thing 2\n\n=back")' plain items thing 1 thing 2 And also as XHTML: perl -MPod::Simple::XHTML -E 'Pod::Simple::XHTML->filter(\"=head1 plain items\n\n=over 4\n\n=item thing 1\n\n=item thing 2\n\n=back")' <html> <head> <title></title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" /> </head> <body> <h1 id="plain-items">plain items</h1> <dl> <dt>thing 1</dt> <dd> </dd> <dt>thing 2</dt> <dd> </dd> </dl> </body> </html>

When i inspect that HTML bit in a browser (Opera in my case) it does not have any indentation. Does your browser render it with indentation?

No, because it's a definition list with no <dd> elements. You can use CSS to add indentation if you want it. David

So it seems that there is an inconsistency between Text and XHTML output. Is there a reasoning for this that i overlooked while browsing the docs of Pod::Simple::XHTML and Pod::Simple? Or am i interpreting this wrong?

No inconsistency, they are two completely different formats. One is text, which needs to include formatting in it (indentation, etc.). The other is semantic XHTML, which does not (the expectation is that formatting is managed in a separate CSS file). HTH, David
