Well, to start with, with any problems with SGML, it's first a good idea to make sure that the SGML is valid. I usually run 'nsgmls -gues <file>'. That shows: nsgmls:meta.sgml:15:0:E: start tag for "TITLE" omitted, but its declaration does not permit this nsgmls:meta.sgml:15:0: open elements: DEBIANDOC BOOK[1] TITLEPAG[1] (TITLE[1]) [...] You have cruft on line 15 which is illegally appearing before you have any open tags allowing free text. Let's comment that out then continue.... bash-2.01$ nsgmls -gues meta.sgml bash-2.01$ All is well. Now secondly, this is debiandoc, not linuxdoc, so you're running the wrong command. 'sgml2html --style=debiandoc' isn't even documented in the man page, so I assume it's just not the supported way to do it. You should run: bash-2.01$ debiandoc2html meta.sgml Voila. All is wonderful. -- .....A. P. [EMAIL PROTECTED]<URL:http://www.onShore.com/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
