Hi,
If you are using the namespace-aware version of the stylesheets (with "-ns-" in the directory name), then you need to add the namespace declaration to your stylesheet and use the namespace in element matches. See this doc for details:

http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/CustomDb5Xsl.html

Assuming the context of the xpath is correct for selecting article, an xpath such as d:article/d:title would be appropriate.

Subject: [docbook-apps] xpath into docbook namespace


Hi - Docbook newb here. What is the XPath selector for <title> in the
following trivial Docbook article? The regular article/title isn't
working because of the namespace declaration, although I don't know
why.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<article xmlns="http://docbook.org/ns/docbook"; version="5.0">
<title>I Am The Title</title>
</article>

Thank you.

Franklin
