> Locators like those in pdfs generated via FO are ideal. Can you give an example of what those locators would look like in the context of HTML and ePub, which have no fixed page numbers?

Can the generated index linked be changed to reflect the paragraph/line number, or something other than the chapter/section title. Locators like those in pdfs generated via FO are ideal. I am aware that the index.prefer.titleabbrev can also be set to 1, or the default 0, but this is not desire-able in the documents at hand.

As HTML doesn't use page numbers you need another anchor -- only sensible anchor with a label is the closest section with the title. > Is there a way to generate an index for e-pub and html that will generate > an index like the PDF output? Yes, just set the following parameter to 0: http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/doc/html/index.links.to.section.html > Every <indexterm/> used is given a unique xml:id. You don't even need to manually assign IDs for this, they can be autogenerated. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------ Jirka Kosek e-mail: [email protected] http://xmlguru.cz ------------------------------------------------------------------ Professional XML consulting and training services DocBook customization, custom XSLT/XSL-FO document processing ------------------------------------------------------------------ OASIS DocBook TC member, W3C Invited Expert, ISO JTC1/SC34 rep. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Bringing you XML Prague conference http://xmlprague.cz ------------------------------------------------------------------
