Here are but two examples obtained with 15 seconds of searching on Google Books: Code listing as figure: http://books.google.com/books?id=Za1ypU8u9BAC&lpg=PP9&dq=%22Figure%205%22&pg=PA96#v=onepage&q=%22Figure%205%22&f=false Table as figure: http://books.google.com/books?id=Fsz234KPVz8C&pg=PT120&dq=%22Figure+5%22&ei=I4wUS8raFJjQNPHJ2ZQL#v=onepage&q=%22Figure%205%22&f=false There is no confusion caused by using non-images in figures. It is a common idiom that people are used to. -- Configure bugmail: http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug.
