Re: DOCBOOK-APPS: What's the most appropriate (and futureproof) way tostyle the FO?

DOCBOOK-APPS: Docbook xsl stylesheets and accessibility requirements?

Hi there, I'm planning on using the 1.59.2 DocBook xsl stylesheets to create HTML, PDF, and HTML help renditions. (Thank you, Norm!!) I'll need to ensure that they meet certain standards for accessibility: * W3C recommendation: Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 1.0 (

Re: DOCBOOK-APPS: Docbook xsl stylesheets and accessibilityrequirements?

I think there is quite a bit of information around about accessibility and the xsl stylesheets. I don't know that it is collected and documented in one place. Since accessibility is a major interest of mine, I'd be happy to work with folks in pulling something together, for the FAQ perhaps? I'd

DOCBOOK-APPS: Chapter page numbers in TOC

DOCBOOK-APPS: avoiding TT

Since tidy complains at me when I use TT output, I've made some hacks in the DSSSL stylesheets (not yet committed) to produce HTML output using KBD, VAR, CODE, and SAMP rather than TT whenever it seems possible to determine which element we want. These elements have been in HTML since 3.2 if not
