Hi Jason,
You will want to copy the template named 'toc.line'
from html/autotoc.xsl to your customization layer and modify it to add
author. This line of XSL generates the title:
<xsl:apply-templates select="."
mode="titleabbrev.markup"/>
The context node for that template is the element
for that line in a TOC (chapter, section, etc.). So you would want to add
an xsl:if statement after the title to include the author, something like this
for DocBook 5 (remove the d: namespace prefix if DocBook 4):
<xsl:if test="(self::d:chapter or
self::d:article) and d:info/d:author">
<xsl:text>
</xsl:text>
<span class="tocauthor">
<xsl:variable
name="author">
<xsl:apply-templates select="d:info/d:author[1]"
mode="titlepage.mode"/>
</xsl:variable>
<xsl:value-of
select="$author"/>
</span>
</xsl:if>
The $author variable is used to strip any
formatting that would be applied by titlepage.mode using xsl:value-of, which
returns only text.
You can add a CSS selector matching on class
'tocauthor' to format the author name in the TOC.

Subject: [docbook-apps] Adding author
name to TOC
Hi,
Is there a relatively simple way to customize the TOC
generation so that the author name is included with the chapter/article title
in the TOC for HTML output? I am working a on book of pieces by dozens of
authors and would like to include the author names in the TOC without having
to manually generate the TOC (if possible).
Thanks,
Jason
