Two possible starting points using the base DocBook stylesheets:
* Olink databases, if you use olinks. To quote 'Target database
additional uses' in Chapter 24 of Stayton's book:
"You may find additional uses for the target database that keeps track
of potential olink targets. The database contains structured information
about a collection of documents. The information includes the hierarchy
of division and section elements, with enough information to form links
to them. You could, for example, generate a master table of contents for
all of your documents."
I use a sitemap to generate HTML breadcrumbs, for example.
* eclipse/eclipse.xsl (Chapter 24) generates an Eclipse toc and
manifest. Maybe you could customize that stylesheet.

Hi,
First, a brief introduction to what I'm trying to do.
Background: Creating ePub from DocBook
******************************
I'm trying to build on the DocBook XSL an 'ePub' output. 'ePub' is the
nickname for a set of standards for a reflowable ebook format. The
standards build on XHTML 1.1 and CSS for the content. There is
additional XML for navigaiton and a manifest.
I've created a new instance of the html2xhtml.xsl. I have, at least
against one test, validating XHTML 1.1 from a docbook xml document.
Now, I'm starting on what seems to be the hard part. There's a couple of
extra files that I need to create, one is a toc (it's not in XHTML but
in another XML vocabulary.) The other file I need to add is the OPF
file, which is basically a manifest, a set of metadata, and a listing of
the chapters.
Now my question:
******************************
How do I use the chunking HTML stylesheets but generate a separate TOC
with a different format (not HTML) and have the links work from the TOC
to the targets inside the chunks? Is the answer in "Customized hrefs"
(in chapter 12 of "DocBook XSL: The Complete Guide"), or is that not the
right direction?
Thanks,
Paul Norton
