Thanks for your files, David. They worked fine with my XML source and gave
colored text.
The problem lies in our build system. We use some scripts to pre-process the
XML before sending to xsltproc. They are doing something to legalnotice
elementswhich means that legalnotice/para attributes are not matched.
However, attributes on legalnotice are matched.
Until I get to the bottom of this, I can use the following workaround.
Multiple legalnocices are allowed in bookinfo, so I can work at block level
on the legalnotice that I want to mark in colored text:
XML:
<legalnotice role="draft">
<para/>
</legalnotice>
XSL:
<xsl:template match="legalnotice[@role='draft']/para">
<fo:block color="red">
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</fo:block>
</xsl:template>
