Yes, you can have markup inside entities. The problem in this case is that
the elements inside your entity declarations are not in the docbook
namespace. You'll need to edit the declarations as follows:
<!ENTITY ac "<emphasis xmlns='http://docbook.org/ns/docbook'>administrative
code</emphasis>">
The namespace is not inherited from the root element of the importing
document. This is true of XIncludes as well.

Subject: [docbook-apps] Is it possible to include markup in a general
entity?
Clearly, I am not as bright as I think; equally clearly, my Google skills
are not what they ought to be as I cannot find the answer to this question.
I want to take advantage of general entities to minimize my typing, so I
have been experimenting a bit. When I have an entity that contains just
straight text, the entity expands just fine. When I have an entity that
contains markup, e.g. <emphasis>administrative code</emphasis>, my attempt
to create an fo file from my xml sources using xsltproc returns the
following:
Making portrait pages on USletter paper (8.5inx11in)
Element emphasis in namespace '' encountered in para, but no template
matches.
I have no doubt missed something obvious, but can't seem to put my finger on
it. So, *can* I have markup in a general entity that I wish to expand?
Thanks for your help; don't laugh too hard. :)
I have the following DocBook document:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE book [
<!ENTITY % manualent SYSTEM "manualentities.ent">
%manualent;
]>
<book xmlns="http://docbook.org/ns/docbook";
xml:lang="en">
<info>
<title>Rulewriting manual for Utah</title>
<abstract>
<para>Style guidelines for rules to be included in the ∾</para>
</abstract>
</info>
<xi:include
xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude";
href="part-style.xml" />
</book>
I have the associate entities file, manualentities.ent:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<!ENTITY ac "<emphasis>administrative code</emphasis>">
<!ENTITY uc "Utah Code">
I use xsltproc with the following command line to create an fo file:
xsltproc --xinclude --output manual.xml.fo ..\customxsl\customxsl-fo.xsl
manual.xml
My customxsl-fo.xsl file contains:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format";
version="1.0">
<!-- Import stock DocBook stylesheets -->
<xsl:import href="../dbxsl/fo/docbook.xsl"/>
<!-- Set XEP extensions -->
<xsl:param name="xep.extensions" select="1" />
<!-- Customizations -->
<!-- Inner and outer page margins -->
<xsl:param name="page.margin.inner">1.5in</xsl:param>
<xsl:param name="page.margin.outer">1in</xsl:param>
<!-- Section and subsection headings -->
<xsl:param name="body.start.indent">0pc</xsl:param>
</xsl:stylesheet>
