[daisy] Anchor Boxes

I have already done quite a bit of customization to the xsl on my daisy
server and I have never used xsl before now.  I think fo:float may work
but I need to create anchor boxes that float in the left margin that
flow with inline content.  The floating anchor boxes are going to
contain definitions for words found in the content and need to move with
the words as content is edited.  I have tried the links provided but
neither of them seem to contain the information that I need to achieve
this.

Thanks,
Michael

Assuming you are talking about fo:float: we currently do not use any
fo:floats.  Creating custom writing styles and implementing custom
styles in html, document pdf or book pdf layouts is described in detail
on the wiki and in the daisy documentation:
