If you got it to work in DocBook V4.5, then you'll get it to work for DocBook v5. You just need to keep in mind that: [1] All elements in DocBook v5 have a namespace -- http://docbook.org/ns/docbook -- while DocBook v4 elements have no namespace. [2] XPath 1 has no concept of default namespace. All in all, something like: --- @namespace "http://docbook.org/ns/docbook";; ... chapter > title:first-child:before { content: collapser() " Chapter " label(xpath, "1 + count(../preceding::chapter)") ": " ; } --- cannot work for DocBook v5. While something like: --- @namespace db5 "http://docbook.org/ns/docbook";; ... chapter > title:first-child:before { content: collapser() " Chapter " label(xpath, "1 + count(../preceding::db5:chapter)") ": " ; } --- should work fine. Note that this kind of change will force you to copy docbook/css/collapsible.imp as docbook5/css/collapsible5.imp, to modify the copy as described above and then to import it in docbook5.css: @import url(collapsible5.imp); > > However this trick causes docbook v5.0 to have "1" for all chapter > numbers (sections numbers are all 1.x.y.z... throughout since all the > Chapters are 1), and I haven't been able to tweak it to my need.
