[moving this over to the docbook-apps mailing list where stylesheet issues
are discussed]
Hi Andreas,
Welcome to DocBook. Since you are new, you would not have known that the
docbook mailing list is for discussion of elements and schemas, and the
docbook-apps list is for stylesheet and other application issues. I would
suggest you subscribe to both.
I publish a book on customizing DocBook XSL, and you can access it for free
in HTML form at:
http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/
In particular, you want to look at how to create a stylesheet customization
layer at:
http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/CustomMethods.html#CustomizationLayer
That will explain that you don't need to edit the original stylesheet files
to customize.
Regarding your specific questions:
- The running page headers are already as wide as the page, within the
margins. Can you provide more details of what you want?
- You don't need to include a <toc/> element, as a toc can be generated
automatically. See the stylesheet parameter named "generate.toc" in the
index of my book.
- Regarding chapter titles, there is a section in my book on customizing
them:
http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/TitleFontSizes.html#ChapterTitles
Hope this helps.

Subject: [docbook] problem with customizing header
Hello list,
I am totally new to DocBook and have some questions about formatting
several parameters.
My questions are, I hope, really simple:
- I try to customize the header. The header should be as wide as the page.
- the toc is shown twice => I included <toc/> after the <set> element
- I need to remove the word "Chapter"for every <chapter> element in the
instance document
Is it right, that I change everything concerning the docbook under
/frameworks/docbook/xsl/params ?
Thanks so much,
Andreas
