Re: [docbook-apps] RE: [docbook] TOC / document function

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

The reason for the empty TOC line is because a chapter element is processed 
with a different template with mode="toc" to generate the TOC entry.  Those 
templates are found in fo/autotoc.xsl.  In other parts of the stylesheet, a 
chapter element may also be processed in mode="title.markup", 
mode="object.title.markup", mode="label.markup", etc.  None of those 
templates will be aware of the @file attribute unless you customize them as 
well.  As Mauritz suggested, generally it is best to assemble your content 
using XInclude and let the stock stylesheets handle it.
