One more "enhancement". I changed the template to match any child of a chapter,
article or book/appendix that has <?landscape?> or orient='land' (however
orient='land' is only allowed on tables). This way, if you have a table (or wide
programlisting) that you want to landscape in the middle of a chapter, you can at
least put it in a section[parent::chapter] or sect1 with the <?landscape?> pi and have
the whole section landscaped:
<chapter>
<title>blah</title>
Blah de.
<section>
<?landscape?>
<title>A landscaped section</title>
....
*[(@orient='land' or ./processing-instruction('landscape')) and (parent::chapter or
parent::article or (parent::appendix and ancestor::book))]"
Not great by any means, but it's something for now. I hard coded the landscaped
region-body's margin-top and margin-bottom at 1in so that the section heading in the
docbook xsl's default setting wouldn't intrude into the footer. That should really be
calculated.
Caveat snarfer,
