Subject: Re: [docbook-apps] Change "TableofContents" gentext for Chapter level tocs?
This can be done with a combination of customizations. But it differs from FO and HTML outputs. For FO output, the Table of Contents title is generated from the titlepage mechanism, from the specs in fo/titlepage.templates.xml. It currently just calls the gentext template with a fixed key "TableofContents". So I changed the first part of it to: <t:titlepage t:element="table.of.contents" t:wrapper="fo:block"> <t:titlepage-content t:side="recto"> <title t:force="1" t:named-template="toc.title" param:node="." space-before.minimum="1em" This customized spec file needs to be built into a new titlepage.templates.xsl that your customization layer includes. Now it will call a new template named "toc.title" with the current element as the "node" parameter. The toc.title template looks like this: <xsl:template name="toc.title"> <xsl:param name="node" select="."/> <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="local-name(.) = 'chapter'"> <xsl:call-template name="gentext"> <xsl:with-param name="key" select="'ChapterTableofContents'"/> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <xsl:call-template name="gentext"> <xsl:with-param name="key" select="'TableofContents'"/> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> </xsl:template> If the current element is a chapter, then the key is "ChapterTableof Contents". Then I defined that gentext key in the customization file using this: <xsl:param name="local.l10n.xml" select="document('')"/> <l:i18n xmlns:l="http://docbook.sourceforge.net/xmlns/l10n/1.0"> <l:l10n language="en"> <l:gentext key="ChapterTableofContents" text="In this chapter you will cover:"/> </l:l10n> </l:i18n> You can define other strings for other languages too.
