Hi folks.
I've a DocBook project that has a number of articles, and many of those
articles have keywords. In my case I'm slightly abusing keywords for
categories, but I don't think that's a huge deal. However, I want to
show the keywords in my output at the top of each article, as a
definition list.
My source looks something like this:
<article>
<articleinfo>
<keywordset>
<keyword role="service">PC</keyword>
<keyword role="category">Destroyer</keyword>
<keyword role="variant">Tactical</keyword>
<keyword role="mark">II</keyword>
</keywordset>
</articleinfo>
<!-- ... -->
</article>
At one point in time with an older version of DocBook XSL, I had the
following customizations working:
<xsl:template match="article//keywordset"
mode="article.titlepage.recto.auto.mode">
<dl class="classification">
<xsl:apply-templates select="keyword"
mode="article.titlepage.recto.mode" />
</dl>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="keywordset/keyword"
mode="article.titlepage.recto.mode">
<xsl:if test="@role != ''">
<dt><xsl:value-of select="@role" /></dt>
<dd><xsl:apply-templates mode="article.titlepage.recto.mode"/></dd>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>
But at some point they stopped working during an upgrade and I didn't
notice, so I don't know what version that was. :-) As nears as I can
tell, those templates are simply not matching anything so never output
anything, but I don't know what to replace them with.
My questions then are:
1) What's the correct way in "modern" DBXSL to grab the keywords and
display them at the top of each page?
2) Is there some structure other than keywords that I should be using
instead that I don't know about, that would be easier to work with?
Merci, Gracias, and all gratitudinal commentary.
