Re: Callout, footnotes, & annotations.

  This might be a little late, but it was an interesting problem that
I had to delay until I could get around to looking at it again.
Taking a little bit of time to learn SVG helped, too. :)

  This example definitely needs some work to get your text exactly
right, and it's very crude in the placement of items in the SVG, but
it will actually display something reasonably close to what you want.
(fop complains about the overflow area, but it seems to be fine in the
PDF output)   It would be nicer if I could figure out how to do
looping in SVG (I can't find a reference to how to do it), so if
someone knows I'd appreciate a simple example that illustrates it.  :)

   Example:
xsltproc --nonet --xinclude --output test.fo app.xsl test_seq.xml
c:\docbook\fop.bat test.fo test.pdf

  Files used in the example at the end of the message.

Enjoy!

v5 version information.

 From a quick look, it appears as if there is no version information in 
the .rng file for the docbook schema itself?

<!-- DocBook V5.0CR3-->
<!-- See http://docbook.org/ns/docbook -->

Seems the only reference?

I'd find it helpful if it were available.

regards

DocBook 5 Howto: Missing Section 'Naming and versioning DocBook customizations'?

Hi,

the latest version of the "DocBook V5.0 Transition Guide"[1] is missing 
the section "Naming and versioning DocBook customizations". The version 
from 2006-05-16 contains still this section.

Is this an oversight? :)

Bye,
Tom

eclipse.xsl - output filenames customizable?


Hello,

I'm trying to convert our document into eclipse-help-html-files, and it
works, but the abbreviations for the output files are not too usable for me,
because I want to program an additional tool where I can group some themes
and chapters for some specific software components - so it would be very
cool for me if the filenames were not ch01s05.html or something, but their
chapter or section ids instead.

Is that possible? They are of course unique, so it shouldn't be a problem
for the filesystem, I suppose. Any suggestions?

Greetings
Rock Lobster

(PS: I tried to find a parameter for that but I wasn't successful. I also
searched this forum but couldn't find anything)

Yes, thanks. I will fix it in the next release.

RE: eclipse.xsl - output filenames customizable?

Eclipse output is a customization of the chunking/html xslts, so what
applies to chunking applies to eclipse. You'll want to set
use.id.as.filename to 1 and add ids to the sections/chapters or use the
<?dbhtml filename="foo.html"?> processing instruction:

http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/doc/html/use.id.as.fi
lename.html

should I use section or sect1, sect2, sect3 etc?


Hello,

I'm somehow confused on whether I should use nested <section> tags, or the
"predefined" <sect1> to <sect5>.
Are there any benefits in using the latter? Are there any reasons why one
way should be avoided in certain situations?

Thanks in advance!
