Re: [docbook-apps] XHTML output

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

Hi Jason,
I'm not sure the Website stylesheets will meet your requirements.  All the
website stylesheets import the html version of the DocBook stylesheets, not
the xhtml version. So they output HTML 4.01 transitional, not XHTML.  You
could copy the Website stylesheets and change the import statement paths
from html to xhtml. There is more than one import statement, so you will
have to take care to get them all.

If you do that, then you will get XHTML output with a DOCTYPE.

The second problem is that the XHTML stylesheet does not output strict
XHTML. It outputs transitional XHTML, and there is no option to make it
strict.
