Hi, I'm trying to get the glossary.sort parameter to work in my PDF output as we are generating a document in multiple languages, so the order of the glossary terms changes, depending on the language.
I have added <xsl:param name="glossary.sort" select="0"></xsl:param> to the param.xsl in our customisation layer, but have made no other changes to the glossary in our customisation layer. The result of the sort does not behave like I expected, or as it is documented at http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/GlossarySort.html, unless I've misunderstood it. My glossary is set up with a glossdiv for each letter in English. When I generate another language, the translations for the terms in the first glossdiv are in alphabetical order, but only within that glossdiv, and each subsequent glossdiv has sorted content but only within that block. >From the information on the above html page, I got the impression that the >parent element container, in my case, the glossary, would be where the terms >were sorted. Have I misunderstood this? You cannot add a glossterm directly to the glossary, so another child block element is needed. In order to alphabetise this the way I want, the only solution I can see is removing the individual glossdivs but one, and just add all glossterms to a single one, eliminating the possibility of having individual letters. On the website it says that 'There is currently no provision for generating letter titles to divide letter groups...etc.' Has anyone done this to include the letters? Or could anyone provide me with a little more guidance on how to get this to work for me? Any information would be helpful. Kind Regards, Laurie. Laurie Burley Sr. Tech Comm Spc.
