[docbook] <figure> and images


Hi everybody,

i´m kinda new to XML and already having my first problem. I´m using
simplified docbook for my XML Files and Apache Forrest 0.6 to build
html-pages, etc. My problem is, that I´m using several <figure>-Tags in my
XML-Files and as long as they contain text everything works fine, but as
soon as they contain images, the layout and format of the following tags
isn´t the way it should be (concerning alignment, font size, etc.). I placed
my sample-code below. If I skip the <figure>-tag and just use the
<mediaobject>-tag, the layout works fine, but I lose the title option for
graphics. Is there any alternative?

Thanks for your help!

Christian Kaspari
