## sidebar.float.type

sidebar.float.type — Select type of float for sidebar elements

## Synopsis

    <xsl:param name="sidebar.float.type">none</xsl:param>

## Description

Selects the type of float for sidebar elements.

- If `sidebar.float.type` is “`none`”, then no float is used.

- If `sidebar.float.type` is “`before`”, then the float appears at the top of the page. On some processors, that may be the next page rather than the current page.

- If `sidebar.float.type` is “`left`”, then a left side float is used.

- If `sidebar.float.type` is “`start`”, then when the text direction is left-to-right a left side float is used. When the text direction is right-to-left, a right side float is used.

- If `sidebar.float.type` is “`right`”, then a right side float is used.

- If `sidebar.float.type` is “`end`”, then when the text direction is left-to-right a right side float is used. When the text direction is right-to-left, a left side float is used.

- If your XSL-FO processor supports floats positioned on the “`inside`” or “`outside`” of double-sided pages, then you have those two options for side floats as well.
