[docbook-apps] How to enable (for example) Greek character entities in db5?
I'm trying to understand jpw to include some greek characters in a docbook v5 article but I fail to understand how to enable the Greek Letters Character Entities. The docbook guide says to specify the Greek Letters Character Entities (%isogrk1;) Q1: Where/how should this parameter be specified so I can reference the Greek character as entities in the text? If I read the XSL guide it says - and I quote: The DocBook DTD defines the character entities that make it easy to add special characters to your XML files. To enter a copyright symbol, for example, it is easier to remember a name like copy; than the equivalent #x00A9; Unicode entity. Depending on the source for your DTD download, the files that define the character entity names may not be included. They are on the OASIS website under http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xmlcharent/index.shtml. Create a directory named ent in the directory where the DocBook DTD files are, and extract the entity files into ent. The DTD will find them in that location because it has references that look like ent/iso-amsa.ent. But I still fail to understand how I can instruct (for example) xsltproc to recognize these additional entities. Even using the raw unicode fails since xsltporc interprets that as an entity (i.e. #0903;) Since ENTITY is not really cosher in db5 the above explanation does not seem to apply anyway. Can someone shine some light on the errors of my way here ? /Johan

Thanks !! Adding a !DOCTYPE book [ !ENTITY % isogrk1 SYSTEM http://www.w3.org/2003/entities/iso8879/isogrk1.ent; %isogrk1; ] Made it possible to reference the basic Greek characters without having to look up (and remembering) all unicode entities. /Johan On the 2009-05-27 you wrote: Johan Persson wrote: Can someone shine some light on the errors of my way here ?

[docbook-apps] Missing Text in Nested Lists
Hi, I have been using DocBook XSL stylesheets in conjunction with AsciiDoc to create html files. AsciiDoc might produce something like the attached XML file (error.xml), which contains a nested list. However, when I apply stylesheets to it, some text disappears as indicated below. 1. List Item #1. 2. List Item #2. -- THIS ITEM DISAPPEARS a. Nested List Item #1. b. Nested List Item #2. c. Nested List Item #3. 3. List Item #3. I have been using the following command: xsltproc -o error.html DOCBOOK_DIR/xhtml/docbook.xsl error.xml where DOCBOOK_DIR is the DocBook installation directory for docbook-xsl-1.75.0. Can someone explain what's wrong?
