Hi Bob,
first thanks a lot for your time and your explanations.
I think, may be it can really easy be done by something like that.
dockbook snippet:
<para>
Some general text...
<variablelist>
<varlistentry role="REC">
<term>REC-XX</term>
<listitem>
<para>
Bla bla
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry role="REC">
<term>REC-XX</term>
<listitem>
<para>
Bla bla bla
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry role="REQ">
<term>REQ-XX</term>
<listitem>
<para>
Bla bla bla
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
</variablelist>
</para>
And then use an general (not output specific template) similar to:
<xsl:template match="[EMAIL PROTECTED] = 'REC']" mode="object.term.markup">
<fo:block xsl:use-attribute-sets="special.varlistentry.term.attributes">
<xsl:text>MYREC-</xsl:text>
<xsl:variable name="rec-number">
<xsl:number count="[EMAIL PROTECTED] = 'REC']" level="any"/>
</xsl:variable>
<xsl:number value="$rec-number" format="01"/>
</fo:block>
</xsl:template>
same for REQs.
What is your opinion? Can this work? My template is wrong, do have an hint
or a resource where I can find more informations.
Thanks a lot in advance,
Halm
