Subject: Re: [docbook-apps] DocBookXSL XHTML chunking does not produce hyperlinksin index page.
Hi Bob,
I unfortunately rely upon Xalan-2 used through the ANT xslt task and
cannot easily switch over to Saxon. Therefore I'd really appreciate the
further investigation you announced to get Xalan to generate the links
in the index.
Thanks for the great work you do for us all.
Regards,
Gisbert Amm
