Mark,

Then I doubt the <xsl:param name="activate.external.olinks" select="0" /> will 
work.  Have you tried linking using <olink targetdoc=”foodoc” 
targetptr=”foochap />, if you haven’t there are some additional actions 
required such as generating the target data files.

I have a sample (on an internal network) if you need it.

Regards

Nick

Hi Nick,

The sample uses <link> with xlink:role set:




<link xlink:href="book#chapter"



      xlink:show="new"



      xlink:role="http://docbook.org/xlink/role/olink";>chapter</link>

Mark

Mark,

Are you using the olink element in your source document, as I seem to recall in 
a post on the docbkx user forum that you was using link instead?

Hello again,

On the docbkx-tools list, Cedric suggested I try to reproduce the symptom of 
color showing up when <xsl:param name="activate.external.olinks" select="0" /> 
without using docbkx-tools, but instead using the 1.78.1 stylesheets directly.

That's actually easier said than done.

With 
https://github.com/markcraig/DOCS-47/commit/6b5ca793474887655dcfe95d585a8e0cbf5af9e5
 I can generate PDFs that do include olinks, and the inter-book olink does turn 
out blue. But I'm not sure the olinks are getting resolved correctly.

Where could I find a simpler example to read so I can see how turning off 
activate.external.olinks does deactivate the coloring?

Regards,
Mark

Thanks Bob, Chris,

At least I see what the expected behavior is.

No doubt a problem somewhere in my own code.

Hi Mark,
Unless I'm misunderstanding what you are trying to do,
it should already work that way.  That is, if you are setting 
activate.external.olinks to zero, then the external olinks should render as 
plain text and not be formatted with the xref.properties attribute-set.  The 
xref.properties attribute-set is only applied when fo:basic-link is being 
output with @internal-destination, or if the element is an actual xref which 
also generates that output.

I just tried it with 1.78.1 and setting:

<xsl:param name="activate.external.olinks" select="0"/>
<xsl:param name="current.docid">shortbook</xsl:param>


<xsl:attribute-set name="xref.properties">
  <xsl:attribute name="color">#47a</xsl:attribute>
</xsl:attribute-set>
In my PDF, the internal olinks are colored, but my external olinks are not (and 
are not active).

Hello,

What is the right way with the 1.78.1 stylesheets to color only internal
links in FO?

I'd like to deactivate external olinks in PDF output with
activate.external.olinks, and then leave external links the same color as
surrounding text, but keep color on internal links (and URLs) because
without visual cues it can be difficult to notice that they're active.

At present I'm using the following customization, loosely based on
http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/OlinkFormatting.html:

   <xsl:attribute-set name="xref.properties">
     <xsl:attribute name="color">#47a</xsl:attribute>
   </xsl:attribute-set>

This makes all the links blue... unfortunately including deactivated
external olinks.

I have tried setting olink.properties, too, with #000 as the color, but I
still see blue text in the PDF output for all links, including deactivated
external links.

Asking authors to add more attributes to external links is something I'd
like to avoid.

Thanks in advance for your time and your help.

Regards,
Mark
