Currently it gets the generated text right, but the link is to the id of the title element, and most title elements do not output an @id attribute, so the link fails. It seems this feature was broken some time ago when the xref templates were rewritten to support universal linking in DocBook 5.</pre><pre> This customization of the template named 'simple.xlink' from fo/inline.xsl fixes the id problem. It only corrects the problem for @linkend references, not for @xlink:href references used in universal linking, but it should suffice for your needs. Search for 'linkend.candidate' to see where I made the changes. <xsl:template name="simple.xlink"> <xsl:param name="node" select="."/> <xsl:param name="content"> <xsl:apply-templates/> </xsl:param> <xsl:param name="linkend.candidate" select="$node/@linkend"/> <xsl:param name="xhref" select="$node/@xlink:href"/> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="$xhref and (not($node/@xlink:type) or $node/@xlink:type='simple')">  <xsl:variable name="is.idref"> <xsl:choose>   <xsl:when test="starts-with($xhref,'#') and (not(contains($xhref,'(')) or starts-with($xhref, '#xpointer(id('))">1</xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise>0</xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:variable>  <xsl:variable name="is.olink"> <xsl:choose>   <xsl:when test="contains($xhref,'#') and @xlink:role = $xolink.role">1</xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise>0</xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:variable> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="$is.olink = 1"> <xsl:call-template name="olink"> <xsl:with-param name="content" select="$content"/> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:when> <xsl:when test="$is.idref = 1"> <xsl:variable name="idref"> <xsl:call-template name="xpointer.idref"> <xsl:with-param name="xpointer" select="$xhref"/> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:variable> <xsl:variable name="targets" select="key('id',$idref)"/> <xsl:variable name="target" select="$targets[1]"/> <xsl:call-template name="check.id.unique"> <xsl:with-param name="linkend" select="$idref"/> </xsl:call-template> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="count($target) = 0"> <xsl:message> <xsl:text>XLink to nonexistent id: </xsl:text> <xsl:value-of select="$idref"/> </xsl:message> <xsl:copy-of select="$content"/> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <fo:basic-link internal-destination="{$idref}"> <xsl:apply-templates select="." mode="simple.xlink.properties"/> <xsl:copy-of select="$content"/> </fo:basic-link> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:when>  <xsl:otherwise> <fo:basic-link external-destination="url({$xhref})"> <xsl:apply-templates select="." mode="simple.xlink.properties"/> <xsl:copy-of select="$content"/> </fo:basic-link>    <xsl:call-template name="hyperlink.url.display"> <xsl:with-param name="url" select="$xhref"/> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:when> <xsl:when test="$linkend.candidate"> <xsl:variable name="targets.candidate" select="key('id',$linkend.candidate)"/> <xsl:variable name="target.candidate" select="$targets.candidate[1]"/> <xsl:variable name="target.id"> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="$target.candidate/self::title and $target.candidate/parent::/@id"> <xsl:value-of select="$target.candidate/parent::/@id"/> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:value-of select="$target.candidate/@id"/> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:variable> <xsl:variable name="targets" select="key('id',$target.id)"/> <xsl:variable name="target" select="$targets[1]"/> <xsl:variable name="linkend" select="$target/@id"/> <xsl:call-template name="check.id.unique"> <xsl:with-param name="linkend" select="$linkend"/> </xsl:call-template> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="count($target) = 0"> <xsl:message> <xsl:text>XLink to nonexistent id: </xsl:text> <xsl:value-of select="$linkend"/> </xsl:message> <xsl:copy-of select="$content"/> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <fo:basic-link internal-destination="{$linkend}"> <xsl:apply-templates select="." mode="simple.xlink.properties"/> <xsl:copy-of select="$content"/> </fo:basic-link> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:copy-of select="$content"/> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> Bob Stayton Sagehill Enterprises b...@sagehill.net From: Eric Nordlund Sent: Thursday, April 04, 2013 6:00 PM To: docbook-apps@lists.oasis-open.org Subject: [docbook-apps] xrefs to <title> elements don't work My company has a hundred or so books that were authored with Arbortext's graphic XML editor. I'm having a problem processing these books with XSL-FO because so many of the xrefs in these books are to title elements instead of the parent procedure, section, example, table, etc., elements. Is there a way to make these work in the XSL-FO output? I was thinking I could have a template that could recognize when an xref/@linkend pointed to the id of a title and then change the linkend to the id of the title's parent element, but I don't really know how to do that. Is there another way to do what I need to do?
