Hi Ben,

let's see whether I've understood you. You're using the HTML produced by
torques documentation task and process it using xdoc. Your example looks
nice.

My problem with this is, that to much information has been lost in the
html-file(s) generated by torque. 

Now you have 2 possibilities if you want to rely on this infos:

1) Changing the transformation-process provided by torque to include
them in any way
2) Use the db-schema.xml and generate the documentation out of it.


Well because I need much informations to generate my idea of
documentation. Maybe not at this point but later on, when creating
database-schema.jpg showing the structure and references between tables
in visual form instead of the linked HTML-Code. I think this information
has not to be exported into the HTML-file generated by torque. 

I've uploaded some screen shots on my webserver because cocoon is not
running there at the moment.

http://www.bestsolution.at/torque/torque1.jpg
This is the main-page. Already implemented by my xsl-Stylesheets.

http://www.bestsolution.at/torque/torque2.jpg
This is the example for a tabel. Already implemented by my
xsl-Stylesheets.

http://www.bestsolution.at/torque/torque3.jpg
This is an example for my database-schema.jpg which I talked about a
view lines above. At the moment this is a Screenshot taken from
DbVisualizer.

Once more I don't want to replace the html-output generated by torque. I
only wanted to show up another way to create a documentation based on
the db-schema.xml-File.

Cheers,

tom
