Most people find it easier to attach a CSS stylesheet for
controlling formatting in HTML.  See:

http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/UsingCSS.html

That process is easier and more direct (just edit the CSS and reload)
than customizing the HTML XSL stylesheets.

BTW, although you aren't using a separate title page,
the stylesheets are still using the titlepage mechanism to
handle the article title.  Think of it as a titlepage without
a page break after it.
