Re: Making references<superscript>1</superscript>


/ "E.L. Willighagen" <egonw@sci.kun.nl> was heard to say:
| What is the right way to get autonumbered references in DocBook?
| (Not even sure DocBook does autonumbering).

Autonumbering is a stylesheet issue.

| This was stated by Someone in the late twentieth century [1].
| 
| Where -preferably- the [1] is without [] but superscripted as often
| used in scientific publications.
| 
| Using: ... century <xref linkend="SomeOne99" endterm="SomeOne99.refno">.

What sort of a thing is identified by id='SomeOne99'? Xref generated
text depends on the thing you're pointing at.

| How should i do this?

Depends how you're storing the things your referencing.

                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm
