The basic idea is to improve the DocBook CSS stylesheet
(<distrib>/css/docbook41.css) by adding localized rules such as:
chapter > title:before {
content: "Chapter " counter(n-, upper-roman) "\A";
}
chapter[lang=fr] > title:before {
content: "Chapitre " counter(n-, upper-roman) "\A";
}
By doing it this way, the stylesheet works for both unspecified "lang"
(fallbacks to English) and French.
Note that there is a problem with the DocBook DTD which uses the "lang"
non-standard, ``local'', attribute instead of the "xml:lang" standard,
``global'', attribute.
Unlike "lang", "xml:lang" is ``inherited'' by the descendant elements
contained in a element specifying this attribute. Therefore you
generally have to add "xml:lang" only to the root element of your
document while you'll have to add "lang" on all elements that need to be
localized.
PS: With "xml:lang" instead of "lang", the CSS rule must be written like
this:
chapter:lang(fr) > title:before {
content: "Chapitre " counter(n-, upper-roman) "\A";
}
