Subject: Re: [docbook-apps] chunking only the last section in each chapter


As you have probably noticed by now, customizing the chunking 
stylesheets is challenging.  Getting certain pieces chunked isn't 
too hard, but getting the Next and Prev and TOC navigation right 
is harder.

I would try a different approach.  Norm provided in the 
stylesheet a means for specifying what gets chunked by using an 
external table of contents file.  See the section in my book 
called "Manually control chunking" in:

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

You could do a two-pass process, where you write a small 
stylesheet that generates the external table of contents file 
using your criteria for selecting elements, and then the second 
pass uses that to generate the HTML output chunked the way you 
want.  I didn't try it, but I think that would be easier than 
customizing the chunking templates.
