Hi list,
I'm relatively new to DocBook, using 4.2 XML with the 1.53 stylesheets,
Sablotron 6.5.1 and FOP 0.20.4 for PDF generation.
I have started to play around with various parametrization and
customization and I'd like to ask for some additional information on a few
questions I have. Any help or pointers is greatly appreciated:
- what exactly is the effect of activating the fop extensions?
- in the documentation, I found a reference to EXSLT stating that
if EXSLT is activated, the result HTML is cleared up. I didn't get that
to work; at least not with a visible result
- sometimes dashes "-" are converted to – in the HTML output, but
sometimes not; any idea why?
- Say I have (roughly):
<chapter>
<para>some text</para>
<sect1>...
When I chunk the pages appropriately, the "some text" para will appear
on the same html page below the chapter toc. Though I can understand
why this is so, I would like to change this behaviour. How could I do
that?
- I am using <guimenu><guimenuitem> tags that render properly to
menu->item; however I would like to have the result html display
the guimenu and guimenuitem, emphasized or in bold (a span with
a css class "guimenuitem" resp. "guimenu" would be perfect,
a <em> or <b> would suffice). I tried to find the template definitions
for the tags to customize them but did not succeed. How can I do this?
Well, that´s it, sorry for keeping you read that long. Many thanks for
helping me out if you can,
Steve
