It would help us improve our product if you explained us what sections seems obscure and why their contents didn't help you. > Your product really looks polished--far superior to some others I've > looked at--and I'd like to try it with this simplified version of > DocBook from the O'Reilly publishers.

Note that this configuration, borrowing most of its components from the DocBook configuration, is just intended to give you a quick start. It is not a production-quality configuration. For example, if dblite defines elements not found in DocBook, you'll need to style them yourself by creating a dblite.css (which imports ../docbook/css/docbook.css) and declaring it in dblite.xxe. To install this file, simply unzip it in the install directory of XXE. Unzipping this file * _Overwrites_ file config/catalog.xml * Adds directory config/dblite/ If you want to test dblite, please do not use "test/lx/book.xml" included in the dblite distribution. This file starts with: --- <?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE book SYSTEM "/usr/local/prod/sgml/dblite/dblite.dtd" [ --- which is not transportable. Instead, please download: http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_download/test_dblite.zip 194274bytes 2004-02-20 11:53 This zip file contains a modified book.xml. Unzip it anywhere, for example under C:\TEMP. The modified book.xml starts with: --- <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> <!DOCTYPE book PUBLIC "-//ORA//DTD DBLite XML//EN" "file:///usr/local/dtd/dblite/dblite.dtd" [ --- And therefore, with the right catalog entry (which I have added to config/catalog.xml), it is transportable. --- PS: I'm posting this to xmleditor-support at xmlmind.com because the dblite configuration may interest other XXE users. --- PS2: Unless you are writing books for O'Reilly, using this DTD (which seems unsupported and obsolete) instead of DocBook or Simplified DocBook is not recommended. --- PS3: DBLite is not officially supported by XMLmind (and we do not intend to do so), so please do not ask us questions about it.
