Re: Re[2]: [docbook-apps] XSL Titlepage are Pagetitles?

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

The refentry.title template is referred to in html/titlepage.templates.xml,
but the line is commented out with this statement:
<!-- uncomment this if you want refentry titlepages -->

If it were uncommented, the the call to that template would be in the
regenerated titlepage.templates.xsl.
