I think that there is a typo in "htpt"

Subject: [docbook-apps] how to set relative paths for HTML image
directory?


Hi, I'm totally stuck on a HTML path problem for images. The relative
image paths are all relative to the source image directory, not to the
output image directory (which is what I want).

I'm using xincludes, a customization layer upon the HTML chunks
stylesheet. I'm using saxon 6.5.5


My projects looks like this:


myproject
   index.xml----------source files
   index2.xml
   web-images/ ------these are my source images
    tall.jpg
    wide.jpg
   chunks/   -------this is where docbook puts my output
      index.html
      index2.html
      web.css
      web-images/----this is my copy of web-images folder. I put this
manually here.
        tall.jpg
        wide.jpg

My fileref looks like this:    <imagedata role="html"
fileref="web-images/image1.jpg"/>

I want my output html files to use this kind of image reference:
<img src="web-images/tall.jpg" />

Instead I get this:

<img src="../web-images/tall.jpg" />

I've looked through the parameters:
http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/doc/html/img.src.path.htm
l

I would have thought setting that parameter to :
<xsl:param name="img.src.path">web-images/</xsl:param>

would have solved the problem. But instead I see that nothing has
changed in the output.

I've read  the Docbook XSL book closely and still haven't figured it
out. I've also tried some parameters: html.base and other shots in the
dark (though I haven't tried entityref -- mainly because I don't
understand it--), but  none seem relevant or have worked.

I'm reluctant to change my path structure because I use the same
project to generate an epub file. The db2epub.py script works
perfectly in how it handles images: it transfers all of them to a new
web-images directory.

I don't have any special docbook parameters in my customization layer
(at least not anything which would affects paths).

Is it possible that there's a bug here? Or am I missing something obvious?
