HI Richard,
You can get your titles back by adding a call to the template named
'section.titlepage':
<xsl:template match="d:section">
<xsl:call-template name="section.titlepage"/>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>
In general, the title element is not processed in normal mode, but in
mode="titlepage.mode". The reason is because the d:info element can contain
a lot of information, not all of which is meant to be output. The DocBook
XSL stylesheets provide a mechanism for customizing the selection of d:info
elements to output and what formatting properties to apply to them. Your
title elements may not be in d:info, but d:info supports putting the title
there, so the system has to manage both locations. That titlepage mechanism
is described in this documentation:
http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/HTMLTitlePage.html
I make it a practice of examining (or copying) the original template
matching on an element before customizing it. That way I can see what
special handling the stylesheet already performs, and fit my customizations
into that existing process. In this case, the template with
match="d:section" is in fo/sections.xsl, which in turn calls a template
named 'section.content', which in turn calls 'section.titlepage', which
handles mode="titlepage.mode".

Subject: [docbook-apps] annotating docbook sections
Hi All,
I'm trying to add annotation to my docbook manual when rendered to pdf
using xsltproc and fop.
I'm using a template in my custom xsl:
<xsl:template match="d:section">
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>
This is my first attempt. My expectation is that this should make not
difference to the rendered pdf. However, after executing, I discover the
sections titles are missing through-out the pdf document.
If you could explain why this is - and how I can modify my template so
section titles are displayed in the pdf, I would be grateful.
cheers,
Richard
