Thanks for your reply. I got a nice result (in text and HTML) with:

\details{
 The model is:\cr
 \tabular{lll}{
  \tab ? \tab \eqn{y | \lambda ~ Binomial(n, \lambda)}, with
          \eqn{\lambda ~ Beta(S1, S2)},\cr
  [snip]
  }
 [snip]
 }

What would be a solution "in the spirit of layout languages" ?

Best,

Renaud
