I am sorry to be spamming the list tonight, but I have had - once again - the experience of gaining success with a problem exactly five minutes after I've posted a query about it to the 'net.
Here's where I found "Processing Instruction" defined, with examples: http://www.ibiblio.org/godoy/using-docbook/using-docbook.html This is a nice piece of work Jorge! So with <book><?dbhtml output-dir="/home/wingnut/jtan_site/newsite"> in my source SGML, and (define use-output-dir #t) in my stylesheet driver file, I am once again back in business. One question remains: has this hassle been produced by a difference in DocBook 4.1 from 3.1, or by my ineptitude installing the latter? -- Bob Bernstein http://www.ruptured-duck.com
