Hi C2, If you can mock up a sample of your output XML, even if it is not final, I can show you how it would work. Thanks.

https://www.w3schools.com/xml/xsl_intro.asp Click Next near the bottom to page through the tutorial. If you're creating XSLT transformations, consider whether there's any reason to import it into FrameMaker. When I used XSLT to document something similar I just went straight to a standalone HTML doc. On Tue, Mar 22, 2022 at 1:50 PM cuc tu wrote: > > Looks like I'll need to learn about XSLT.

Re: [Framers] FM2HTML5 Split Topic by Heading Para Style not working
There's a thread on the FM forums reporting issues some people (others it's working fine) are having with the pagination in FM2020 - you may be in that boat too.

To start with, I would like to split the topics based on my 2 Headings. These are numbered headings "across all columns and side heads". The page layout includes side heads. I instruct the HTML5 output to discard the numbering for all the Headings - that works. The split into Topics by Para Style is not working. I get one long page with all info in the same HTML page. Any ideas what could be preventing the split by heading from happening?
