As part of my "Using org on Mobile Devices" worglet, I want to try and explain
how to use style sheets to present different formatting depending on a mobile
device.
However, I can't find any documentation about org's default export format, in
terms of how the html is contained in divs, etc. There was a disussion a
while back at http://www.mail-archive.com/address@hidden/msg11661.html
, but I can find anything in the org manual.
If the documentation doesn't exist and someone can point me at the relevant
bit of lisp code where it's defined, I promise to submit a patch documenting
it:)
Hi Ian,
the lisp code is in org-html.el, but it may be hard to find the relevant pieces.
Maybe the easiest is to make a file with all elements you care
about, export it and look at the resulting html.....
Yes, it's quite self-explanatory.
After removing all text content, you'll stay with the bare XHTML and
everything should be obvious.
This is the skeleton of a basic file without the information not needed
like styles, JavaScript. I indented the text for readability. But note,
that the contents of such a file vary a lot, depending on the export
options and the files contents:

What is `stable' between several exports, is the nesting and the names
of the main containers (replace X with depth of the nesting and ID with
the section number):
* body
* content
* title
* div id="outline-container-ID" class="outline-X"
* h1, h2 ...
* div class="outline-text-ID" id="text-X"
Some containers might or might not exist. E.g. the
* div id="postamble"
* div id="table-of-contents" (could be placed virtually anywhere)
* etc.
