As I put the finishing touches on the enterprise …/xhtml/profile-chunk.xsl stylesheet customizations (css conformance) I have encountered a few  title problems:

 

<xsl:template name="division.title">

      <!-- set, book, part -->

      <xsl:param name="node" select="."/>

      <p>

         <xsl:attribute name="class">page-title</xsl:attribute>

         <xsl:call-template name="anchor">

            <xsl:with-param name="node" select="$node"/>

            <xsl:with-param name="conditional" select="0"/>

         </xsl:call-template>

         <xsl:apply-templates select="$node" mode="object.title.markup">

            <xsl:with-param name="allow-anchors" select="1"/>

         </xsl:apply-templates>

      </p>

</xsl:template>

 

No equivalent division.subtitle; additionally, unable to successfully wrap division.title as with component.title/component.subtitle.

 

 

The templates:

 

<xsl:template match="partintro/title" mode="partintro.title.mode">

  <h2>

    <xsl:apply-templates/>

  </h2>

</xsl:template>

 

and

 

<xsl:template match="partintro/subtitle" mode="partintro.title.mode">

  <h3>

    <i><xsl:apply-templates/></i>

  </h3>

</xsl:template>

 

transform to <h1> elements regardless of <h2> and <h3> or applying css-conformant elements.

 

<xsl:template name="component.title">

      <!-- dedication, preface, chapter, appendix, article, bibliography, glossary, index -->

      <xsl:comment>START: PAGE TITLE AREA</xsl:comment>

      <p class="page-title">

         <xsl:apply-imports/>

      </p>

      <xsl:comment>END: PAGE TITLE AREA </xsl:comment>

 </xsl:template>

 

The above template does not work with partintro titles and the dedication body implements the same page-title class as the dedication title.

 

<xsl:template name="component.subtitle">

      <!-- dedication, preface, chapter, appendix, article, bibliography, glossary, index -->

      <xsl:comment>START: PAGE SUBTITLE AREA</xsl:comment>

      <p class="foo-large">

         <xsl:apply-imports/>

      </p>

      <xsl:comment>END: PAGE SUBTITLE AREA </xsl:comment>

</xsl:template>

 

Same issues as with component.title.

 

 

A couple of suggestions:

1)  templates division.title/division.subtitle should behave as component.title/component.subtitle: a simple wrapper to replace the <h1>, <h2> and <h3> tags with the css classes.

2) role attributes be applied to <title> elements similar to <para> and <phrase> to allow overriding with css classes.

 

 

If I am incorrectly selecting, extending or overriding templates please advise.
