| Hi Dennis,
| thanks, that works fine, though I have to adapt it for all languages...
|
| I looked at en.xml, there the section is defined as:
|   <l:template name="section" text="Section&#160;%n"/>
|
| Any reason for this (Norman?), my personal oppinion is, that a
| reference to a section without the title is not very helpful?

If you're numbering sections, the cross reference "Section 3.4" is
usually sufficient. If you aren't numbering them, then you usually
need the title.

I suppose there should be an option for including titles even when
things are numbered.

                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm
