Hi Tim,
Your customization does not work because that template is used for handling that
section within a toc that has already started, not for starting the toc in the first
place for the section.
You'll need to customize the short template named 'section.toc' from html/autotoc.xsl.
That template calls 'make.toc', so you just need to add a conditional statement to
skip calling 'make.toc' if that attribute is set:
<xsl:template name="section.toc">
<xsl:param name="toc-context" select="."/>
<xsl:param name="toc.title.p" select="true()"/>
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="$toc-context/@userlevel = 'syntax'">
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<xsl:call-template name="make.toc">
<xsl:with-param name="toc-context" select="$toc-context"/>
<xsl:with-param name="toc.title.p" select="$toc.title.p"/>
<xsl:with-param name="nodes"
select="section|sect1|sect2|sect3|sect4|sect5|refentry
|bridgehead[$bridgehead.in.toc != 0]"/>
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>

Hi Dick,
Thanks, I have been reading that section, but it's not that I want to
control the toc on every section, just one section that has a
particular attribute. My question wasn't clear that I do want section
tocs, just not for this particular section.
As far as I can tell, I can't put selectors in the generate.toc
parameter. Here is what I have:
<xsl:param name="generate.toc">book toc
part toc
preface toc
chapter toc
appendix toc
section toc
</xsl:param>
And if it were possible I would do this:
<xsl:param name="generate.toc">book toc
part toc
preface toc
chapter toc
appendix toc
section[not(@userlevel='syntax')] toc
</xsl:param>
so that all sections except that particular one gets the toc
generated. That's the reason for my attempt to override the template
for that section with mode='toc' (in my previous message).
I don't understand why my override template is not having an effect.
thanks,
--Tim

Tim,
I'm not 100% sure what you're trying to do, but it looks like you're trying to
control what levels in the structure get TOCs. This is controlled through a
parameter called generate.toc, and you shouldn't need to customize any templates to
assign TOCs at various levels in the structure.
You can find a description of how to set generate.toc in Bob Stayton's book. Here is
a link to the pertinent section:
http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/TOCcontrol.html
If I'm missing something, and you need to do something more, you will find a
complete description of TOC customization in that same section.
I hope that helps.
Best Regards,
Dick Hamilton

hi, I have one particular section in which I would like to omit the
table of contents.
I want the section to appear in the chapter table of contents, just
not have a toc generated on this section.
The section has the attribute userlevel='syntax'. I tried the
following template but it had no effect I could see (the toc showed up
on the section). I thought it would not generate the toc in the
specified section and produce a single level toc for chapters (i.e. a
toc of the top-level sections in the chapter):
<xsl:template match="d:section[@userlevel='syntax']" mode="toc">
<xsl:param name="toc-context" select="." />
<xsl:if test="local-name($toc-context) = 'chapter'">
<xsl:call-template name="subtoc">
<xsl:with-param name="toc-context" select="$toc-context"/>
<xsl:with-param name="nodes" select="foo"/>
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>
How can I omit the toc for section[@userlevel='syntax'] and still have
the section listed in the chapter toc?
thanks,
--Tim
