Subject: Re: DOCBOOK: DocBook and DSSSL style sheets to do fancy things


[Follow-ups to docbook-apps, please]

/ Richard Sharpe <sharpe@ns.aus.com> was heard to say:
| I am trying to come to grips with creating or modifying style sheets.
| 
| I want to do thing like, in the Book style have offset section titles, like:
| 
|   1.1 The first section
|               The text starts here ... and so on
| 
|   1.2 The second section
|               So does this section , etc ...
| 
| Does anyone have any pointers?

You haven't indicated if your working with DSSSL or XSL stylesheets,
but in either case I think the answer is to set the body indent to
where you want the text to start and the title indent to something
appropriately negative.

                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm
