Re: DOCBOOK-APPS: Generating Preview Documents

For the HTML version this is very simple, I just enter the following XSLT into my master style. xsl:template match=chapter xsl:if test=@id='chap_preview' xsl:apply-templates / /xsl:if !-- else nothing -- /xsl:template Now, I get a document with TOC (including page numbers), appendixes and one chosen chapter. When, however, I try it with FOP, I get a 'null' and that is that .-( The FO looks okay to me. The problem here is the chapter I want to render. If I don't have one with the given id in my document, the document is generated correctly. Any ideas? Anybody did something like this before and can show me a different way? I'm not completely clear on what you mean by a preview document. It seems you want a complete document except all chapters but one do not appear? If that is the case, you might try using xsl:apply-imports/ in your customization instead of xsl:apply-templates/. When you do apply-templates, it is only being applied to the children of chapter. But you need the chapter element template to start the page-sequence. By using apply-imports instead, you tell the processor to use the original chapter template. Since it is conditional on the selected id, only that chapter should be output. If you just want to generate a chapter with its own TOC, you can do it with a couple of parameters and the stock fo stylesheet: rootid=chap_preview generate.toc=chapter toc The first parameter selects only that element for output. The second parameter causes the chapter to have a TOC (which it normally does not have in print). -- Bob Stayton 400 Encinal Street Publications Architect Santa Cruz, CA 95060 Technical Publications voice: (831) 427-7796 Caldera International, Inc. fax: (831) 429-1887 email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
DOCBOOK-APPS: Figures broken in half (kind of)
Hi In the work that I'm doing i have to write several algorithms and I decided to use the following markup: figure title programlisting Algoritm /programlisting /figure I want to know if there is a way of preventing the algorithm to break across pages? I'm using dsssl with jade. P.S As an alternative I would accept : do a do b (continues on next page) - page break do c do d done -- Mario Filipe [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://neptuno.sc.uevora.pt/~mjnf signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

Re: DOCBOOK-APPS: looking for docbook/xml/xslt/etc courseware
Dear Robert, You wrote: i have a couple clients who are interested in a course in xml/docbook and associated processing. i could write it myself at this point, but it would take some time. does anyone have recent, up-to-date and battle-tested courseware? feel free to drop me a note and we can talk. or point me at a web site where i can take a look at some offerings and we can negotiate later. thanks. We have a comprehensive range of XML courseware, including DocBook topics. You do want to teach DocBook using XML, and not SGML, right? The website to look at is http://www.zveno.com/courses/ In fact, our courseware is itself written in DocBook and the diagrams in SVG. These are processed using XSLT to produce the course materials. We use XSL-FO + FOP for printed materials and SVG for data projection (instead of PowerPoint).

DOCBOOK-APPS: docbook-xsl/Cocoon/chunk.xsl
I believe I understand that using chunk.xsl with cocoon doesn't work. This is becauseit designed to save the output to files and now send it to standard out I'm on the right track, right?. So is there some stylesheets out there that can support chunking for cocoon? I'm guessing you pass the xslt processor some parameter to output only the section you need, like section=ch02 for example. Something like that. Can anyone help. Thanks.Do you Yahoo!?
