Ok, but how (I use OpenJade)? > > Using olinks, file extensions must be either .sgml or .xml. isn't it? The .olink file is a summary of all the xref targets. It is generated by processing the target document with the olink.dsl stylesheet and saving the file to the same filename as your document but with a .olink extension. So if your document is "mybook.sgml" then you do something like: jade -d olink.dsl -o mybook.olink mybook.sgml When the docbook.dsl stylesheet processes another document that includes an olink with attribute targetdocent="mybook" (as an entity reference that points to mybook.sgml), it reads mybook.olink to get the summary data to form the link. Anyone trying to use the existing olink mechanim pretty much needs to keep a copy of Norm's document handy: http://docbook.sourceforge.net/projects/dsssl/doc/olinksemantics.html bobs Bob Stayton 400 Encinal Street Publications Architect Santa Cruz, CA 95060 Technical Publications voice: (831) 427-7796 Caldera International, Inc. fax: (831) 429-1887 email: bobs@caldera.com
