DOCBOOK-APPS: indexing an entire set
Hi all, I've successfully made indexes for my books. Now I want to combine some books in a set - is there no way of making an index for the entire set? The spec says that index can't be a child of set. I know there is setindex, but that doesn't let me benefit from the automated indexing provided by Norm's XSL style sheets? I'm using xml-books (4.1.2) with Saxon and Norms style sheets. /claus To subscribe or unsubscribe from this elist use the subscription manager: http://lists.oasis-open.org/ob/adm.pl
DOCBOOK-APPS: Parameters 'default.encoding' and'saxon.character.representation'
Hi, there are parameters 'default.encoding' and 'saxon.character.representation' in chuker.xsl file to specify encoding and entity translations of chunked .html files. I use these features for generating UTF-8 encoded .html files. But I cannot find this parameter in non-chunking stylesheets. Is this a bug or is there some other way how to specify output encoding for .html files? I use Saxon 6.4.3, Crimson 1.1.1, XSL Stylesheets 1.43.

Re: DOCBOOK-APPS: indexing an entire set
Hi Claus, We faced the challenge of indexing a set of books last year, particularly how to incorporate some kind of functionality with the local, global, and all scope attributes on indexterms. We modified Norm's collateindex.pl to do this, and posted a diff file to this newsgroup at that time (before the days of sourceforge), but I don't think our customizations were incorporated into collateindex.pl. At any rate, we also wrote a perl script that used our modified collateindex.pl to let us generate a number of different kinds of indices for books and sets. We also had to modify our DSSSL stylesheet to produce the correct output. I know you are working with the XML stylesheets, but you can view these at the links below, and are welcome to take what you need and use it as you see fit. http://24.112.178.91/cogent/prepdoc/pd-collateindexpl.html http://24.112.178.91/cogent/prepdoc/pd-collateall.html http://24.112.178.91/cogent/prepdoc/pd-customizingthedssslstylesheets.html#PD-COGENTBOTHDSLFILE (towards the bottom) Claus Rasmussen wrote: I've successfully made indexes for my books.

DOCBOOK-APPS: jadetex suit characters
I am using dsssl 1.71 and jadetex 3.10. I have hearts; spades; etc in my sgml source. Jade transforms these into \Character{9825}, etc in the .tex file. Spades and clubs look great, diamonds is a square rather than a rhombus, and hearts does not print at all. The .log file contains Warning: Unknown character 9825, at 15826. If I replace \Character{9825} with $\heartsuit$ in the tex, I get a nice heart. Any hints about where my toolchain is breaking down? On the HTML front, the suits appear as ? with the ISO-8859-1 character set under netscape. With UTF-8 or UTF-7, the suits get printed, but mdash; appears as ?.

DOCBOOK-APPS: fo stylesheets
Feature request please. 1. sect1/title is totally overshadowed by the 'title' in any following example or figure. Request that it be given a greater space-before and at leat a 1.2* size increase+bold. 2. xref/ presentation of xref linkend=ex1201/, and xref linkend=fig1201/, shows this in use. /para example id=ex1201 titleA basic link./title the xref produces as output the content of the title. I find it hard to distinguish the title (in line) from continuation text. If I use a period at the end of the title, it often makes little sense when read in line, I would prefer just 'example 12.3' rather than example 12.3 A basic link. I'd be guided by others experience of this, though I didn't expect the title contents unless I expanded the xref attribute set.

Norman Walsh wrote: I'm pleased to announce that the set of Java classes that I wrote to implement the OASIS XML Catalogs Committee Specification[1] for SAX entityResolver() and JAXP URIResolver()s have been released[2]. Hi Norm, In my docbook system, I use ant to call the parsers etc. to do the work. My system needs to know where the root of the system is so I pass this via a -D param to ant from a script. Other than this and one -D property if you move the root of where the documents are stored, there is no hardcoded paths etc. in the system. If you don't provide a CatalogManager.properties then the following occurs and it just hangs. html: [echo] Transforming: example.xml [echo] Into: /home/maxwell/pws/jdocbook/jdocbook_02/docroot/docs/example/example.html [java] Cannot find CatalogManager.properties [java] Cannot find CatalogManager.properties [java] Cannot find CatalogManager.properties [java] Cannot find CatalogManager.properties [java] Cannot find CatalogManager.properties [java] Cannot find CatalogManager.properties The example properties file uses a full path, not a relative path for the catalog. I put the following file in the classpath. #CatalogManager.properties verbosity=1 # Always use semicolons in this list catalogs=docbook-dtd/docbook.cat prefer=public static-catalog=yes allow-oasis-xml-catalog-pi=yes catalog-class-name=com.sun.resolver.Resolver I was hoping the system would use relative path from the classpath point where it found the CatalogManager.properties file and it doesn't work. I also tried a full path which works but is sub-optimal for me as this path is hardcoded in the property file. Here is the output which either way has the Cannot parse message. With no network it just hangs. It can't find the catalog so it tries to fall back and use the URL? html: [echo] Transforming: example.xml [echo] Into: /home/maxwell/pws/jdocbook/jdocbook_02/docroot/docs/example/example.html [java] Cannot parse verbosity: 1 I'm using xalan-j_2_2_D6 and here is how I am calling Xalan from ant. java fork=true classname=${xslt.processor} classpathref=xalan.classpath arg line=-IN ${input.file} -XSL file://${xhtml.driver} -OUT ${output.file} -URIRESOLVER com.sun.resolver.tools.CatalogResolver -ENTITYRESOLVER com.sun.resolver.tools.CatalogResolver/ /java Don't really know how to proceed but the wrapper provided by Marc-Aurèle for the old code worked great and I could pass the catalog as a system property which I think is perhaps an alternate way to pass the minimal property needed(the catalog) to the Resolver code. java fork=true classname=${xslt.processor} classpathref=xalan.classpath sysproperty key=xml.catalog.debug value=0/ sysproperty key=xml.catalog.override value=yes/ sysproperty key=xml.catalog.files value=${catalog.file}/ arg line=-IN ${input.file} -XSL file://${xhtml.driver} -OUT ${output.file} -ENTITYRESOLVER ConfCatEntityResolver/ /java Anyway, hope this feedback is useful.
