[docbook-apps] xi:include publisher
HI, I moved our common xml files to a webserver and now publisher does not get included. I'm using the following syntax: xi:include xmlns:xi=http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude; href=http:///publisher.xml/ It works great for legalnotice, for colophon etc and it worked when the file was local (though that doesn't mean it was correct). Is it because publisher is not a block item? Is there a better way of including the common publisher across documents?

Hi Peter, What error did you get and what software were you using to do the includes?

Hi Richard, JIng gives me error: element publisher not allowed here; expected element and a long list. I was using xsltproc The start of the publisher.xml file is: ?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'? publisher xmlns='http://docbook.org/ns/docbook' xmlns:svg='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg' xmlns:xlink='http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink' xmlns:xi='http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude' version=5.1 xml:lang=en xml:id=publisher It works fine for legalnotice which gets included in the output, publisher does not. So I have ?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8? book xmlns=http://docbook.org/ns/docbook; xmlns:svg=http://www.w3.org/2000/svg; xmlns:xlink=http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink; xmlns:xi=http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude; version=5.1 xml:lang=en xml:id=idname info titleBook Title/title subtitleSubtitle/subtitle author personname firstnameBob/firstname surnameSmith/surname /personname /author xi:include xmlns:xi=http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude; href=http://.../publisher.xml; xi:fallbackPublisher Missing/xi:fallback /xi:include Thanks, Peter On 26/06/15 20:30, Richard Hamilton wrote: Hi Peter, What error did you get and what software were you using to do the includes?

Re: [docbook-apps] xi:include publisher
Hi Peter, Are you getting this error when you run jing on publisher.xml by itself? If so, the problem is that publisher is not valid as a root element in 5.1, and legalnotice is. Since jing is just looking at that file in isolation, it considers the top element in the file to be a root element. If you resolve the xincludes (you can do that with xmllint --xinclude) to get a single, resolved file, that file should validate successfully (assuming everything else is ok). DocBook 5.1 added a lot more elements as valid root elements (though not publisher), but even before 5.1, I often xincluded files that had illegal root elements. I just avoided checking syntax until after resolving the xincludes. I normally don't use xsltproc, but I did try using it (with the --xinclude option) with the example you gave (local files only), and it resolved the xincludes without complaint and ran a transform successfully. If xsltproc is failing, then please post the error message it gives you and the command line you used. Also, if you haven't already, you might want to try doing this with a local file and see if that makes a difference. Hope that helps.

[docbook-apps] Docbook to IETM?
Docbook experts, I'm looking for information on how we could render our Docbook content as IETM deliverables. Does anyone know of relevant tools (e.g., transform scenarios?) to meet specific IETM functional requirements? Regards, Norma Emery
