Hi,
It seems to be an unsupported feature. This comment appears in the template
for biblioref:
<!-- To be done: add support for begin, end, and units attributes -->
While I'm sure it will usually be used for page references, I think general
support for these attributes may get complicated because 'units' can be any
CDATA, as can 'begin' and 'end'. And not all are required if any are used.
I suppose a simple presentation might handle the most common cases:
the value of 'units', followed by
a space, followed by
the value of 'begin',
and if the value of 'end' is not blank, then
dash, followed by
the value of 'end'.
Would that make sense in all 74 locales that DocBook supports?

Subject: [docbook-apps] Page numbers in citations in XHTML5
I am applying the stylesheet xhtml5/docbook.xsl in docbook-xsl-ns-1.78.0
to my Docbook XML file. However, though linked citations appear in the
output, the page numbers specified for them do not. I am unaware whether
this is a bug, an unsupported feature or I simply am not setting the
required parameters.
Here is my minimal example:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<article xmlns="http://docbook.org/ns/docbook"; version="5.0"
xml:lang="en">
<info>
<title>Minimal example of missing page numbers</title>
<author>
<personname><firstname>Christopher</firstname><surname>Culver</surname></personname>
</author>
</info>
<para>The Kazakh vowel system consists of 11 phonemes.
<citation><biblioref units="pages" begin="95" end="95"
linkend="aralbayev1970" role="bib" /></citation></para>
<bibliolist>
<title>References</title>
<biblioentry xml:id="aralbayev1970" xml:lang="ru">
<abbrev>Aralbaev 1970</abbrev>
<author><personname>
<firstname>Жубаныш
Aралбаевич</firstname><surname>Аралбаев</surname>
</personname></author>
<citetitle>Вокализм казахского языка: очерки по
экспериментальной фонетике и фонологии</citetitle>
<date>1970</date>
<publisher>
<publishername>Nauka</publishername>
<address>Alma-Ata</address>
</publisher>
</biblioentry>
</bibliolist>
</article>
Applying the aforementioned docbook.xsl to the file produces the
following XHTML output:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE html><html
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";><head><title>Minimal example of

</span></span></p></div></div></section></body></html>
As one can see, the page numbers specified as attributes in the
biblioref element are nowhere to be found in the output. I have set XSL
parameter insert.xref.page.number" to "yes" in a customization layer,
but this has no effect. What can I do to fix this?
