Re: [docbook-apps] Article title in chunked HTML files

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

As you discovered, variables are local to each template in XSLT.
You would need to use the template that generates the title:

<xsl:apply-templates select="/*" mode="object.title.markup"/>

That will process the root element to get its title.

Yes, it would appear in the index.html, unless you make it conditional.  You
can do that by checking to see if the current element has a parent:

<xsl:if test="parent::*">
  <xsl:apply-templates etc.

The index.html file is generated by the root element, which has no parent.
