And a Quickish summary of changes I ended up using: - manual.xml.in * Changed all entity includes (&bookinfo, &chapters.intro; &reference.bzip2.book;...) to be XIncludes to href="/ROOT/bookinfo.xml", href="/ROOT/chapters/intro.xml", "/ROOT/reference/bzip2/book.xml".. * Removed most of the SYSTEM entities, except for language-defs - docbook/docbook-xml/docbook.dtd added the dbgenent DocBook4.5 module back in (dbgenent.module) and added most of the SYSTEM entities from the manual.xml.in file - Added DTD (called in PHookBook) to all files xincluded by manual.xml.in, and declared an &magic.files.include; SYSTEM entity (which replaced the &reference.<extname>.functions; entity) pointing to entities.<extname>.xml - Created a catalog file for PHookBook which rewrote "/ROOT/" to "/path/to/doc/<lang>/" I Think thats pretty much it. I don't have the changed files anymore, it was pretty simple to write a script that did these changes after knowing what exactly needed to be done :) There may have been something else I did which I've forgotten to mention.. I experimented a lot but I think this should describe the end results fairly OK. If someone wants to try this out and hits any problem then just ask :) -Hannes
