Hi,
I tried to get glossseealso, i.e. the internal links to work when generating
an auto-glossary. The problem is of course that the glossterms in the text
are pulling in the according glossentries, but the glosssealso - links will
then partly not work since for some of them there are no glossentries pulled
in. This problem is stated in Bob Staytons book:

http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/GlossDatabase.html

<http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/GlossDatabase.html>under "Links in a
glossary collection", the second point.
There, a link to a workaround for that is given:

http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/doc/html/glossary.collection.html

This workaround does not work, since the schema forbids to put a glossterm
in a remark. So the suggested code seems to be wrong:

<glossary role="auto">
<remark>Make sure there's a reference to
<glossterm>gloss-2</glossterm>.</remark>
<glossentry>
<glossterm>Irrelevant</glossterm>
<glossdef>
<para>If you can see this, the document was processed incorrectly. Use
the <parameter>glossary.collection</parameter> parameter.</para>
</glossdef>
</glossentry>
</glossary>


This entry seems to be written for DocBook 4, since there is the placeholder
glossentry in it, which is not necessary anymore.

I just wanted to make note of it, probably someone fixes the docu.
