Re: [docbook-apps] Custom colors for admonitions

[Brett Davis <brettd43@gmail.com>]

Hi Frank,

I'm using xsl-ns-1.78.1/fo/docbook.xsl as my base style sheet, and as
far as I know it's DocBook 5.0. I've had errors caused by missing
namespaces before, so I'm fairly sure that it's supposed to be there.
I've also tried leaving out the namespace ("self::warning") just to be
sure, and that gives the same result.

So far I've tried:
test="self::d:warning"
test="self::warning"
test="ancestor-or-self::d:warning"
test="ancestor-or-self::warning"

I don't know any other options to try.

I just thought: maybe it's a problem with my version of xsltproc
(libxslt-1.1.26.win32), or maybe how I'm using it. That would be a
question for another mailing list...


Thanks,
Brett
