Re: [docbook-apps] Identify first <section>?

["Bob Stayton" <bobs@sagehill.net>]

Change side="recto" to t:side="recto" and it should work.

Note that you will get page breaks for the first section at
level 2, 3, etc. as well. Is that what you intended?  Your test
needs to test for parent being chapter (or appendix if you
use those).
