I know how to code for forrest for this link in the xsl files:
<a href="../by_author_holly.html">Holly Edelson</a>
but how do you code for this sort of link in an xdocs/*.xml file?
can I put dynamic code there?
In what way is it dynamic? Isn't the authors tag sufficient?
http://forrest.apache.org/dtdx/document-v20.dtdx.html#authors
Also, how, for src/xdocs/index.xml file can you code the xsl for it to
count the entries in the /meta-data/foo.xml, set a max integer (value)
for to generate on the xdocs/index.html page when you run forrest to
only show x number of entries for category foo if exists and not show
the rest?
I mean, say I have type foo and type bar in my meta-data/foo.xml file.
Say I have 10 items of type foo and 10 items of type bar, but I only
want the generated home page (html) to display 4 per type?
is it like <xsl:for-each select="articles/article[ type= foo][
*position() < ($entries+1)* ]">?
->this is where I don't have a clue
Do you mean you want to know how to pass the value of $entries into the XSL?
If so take a look at our sitemaps, there are lots of examples. Search
for "<map:paramter"
You could also pass it in using a configuraiton file. You can also see
examples of this in our skins, search for "$config".
