Re: [docbook-apps] Removing number labels from tables, figures, and examples

[Bob Stayton]

This is odd.  I cut and pasted your customization into a customization layer, 
and the figures, tables, and examples do not show "Table" or "Figure", they 
just show the title.  Have you also customized the formal.object.heading 
template?

  Subject: [docbook-apps] Removing number labels from tables, figures, and 
examples


  I use formal tables, figures, and examples in PDF output, but I'd like to 
strip out the numbers for tables, figures, and examples in HTML output. I've 
tried doing that by following the instructions in DocBook XSL: The Complete 
Guide:



  http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/PrintTableStyles.html#TablesUnnumbered



  Here's what my customization looks like:



        <xsl:param name="local.l10n.xml" select="document('')"/>

        <l:i18n xmlns:l="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/xmlns/l10n/1.0";>

          <l:l10n language="en">

            <l:context name="title">

                    <l:template name="table" text="%t" />

                    <l:template name="figure" text="%t" />

                    <l:template name="example" text="%t" />

            </l:context>  

            <l:context name="xref-number-and-title">

                    <l:template name="table" text="the table titled 
&#8220;%t&#8221;" />

                    <l:template name="figure" text="the figure titled 
&#8220;%t&#8221;" />

                    <l:template name="example" text="the example titled 
&#8220;%t&#8221;" />

            </l:context>  

            <l:context name="xref">

                    <l:template name="page.citation" text=" on page&#160;%p" />

                    <l:template name="section" text="%t"/>

                    <l:template name="olink.document.citation" text=" 
in&#160;%o"/>

                    <l:template name="olink.page.citation" text=" on 
page&#160;%p" />

            </l:context>  

          </l:l10n>

        </l:i18n>

        <xsl:template match="table" mode="label.markup"/>

        <xsl:template match="figure" mode="label.markup"/>

        <xsl:template match="example" mode="label.markup"/>



  Although the last three lines effectively remove the number from the table, 
figure, and example titles, they don't remove the word "Table", "Figure", and 
"Example". I'm still left with titles like this:



  Table . Sample table title

  Figure . Sample figure title

  Example . Sample figure title



  Anyone know what I'm doing wrong? My customization doesn't appear to be 
stripping out the "Table %n.", "Figure %n.", and "Example %n."



  BTW, I'm using DocBook 4.5 XSL 1.7.3.2 and Saxon 6.5.3 for my XSLT.
