Subject: Re: [docbook-apps] localization problem with xref elements


Thank you Bob, Daniel

It seems my problem was that I didnt add the lang="fr" to the main xml file. 
The documentation is split between many files, all merged together using 
<xi:include ...
and I only tried to set the lang paramter to the included xml file.
now I have added it to the main xml and I get correct translations for the 
xref string.

im such a noob, im really sorry for bothering you with such issue. at least 
I know a little more about how translations are done and how I can 
customise/override elements.

thank you very much
best regards
Oliver

Hi,
It doesn't seem to be caused by an incomplete translation, as the text in
common/fr.xml in 1.73.2 has the translated text.  When I test an xref with
<book lang="fr">, I get the translated text for the xref.  A more detailed
example would help.

Can you provide a minimal testcase to reproduce (including your
customization layer)? Then we could also take a look, if you do things
right :)

> any idea ?

If it's caused by an outdated or incomplete French translation, then you
can simply "fix" the problem in your customization layer.
