Re: [docbook] equation border and background color

[Mansour <mansour77@yahoo.com>]

Thank you Bob. That did the trick. Basically my problem was because I 
was not calling the formal.object.heading template. I thought I don't 
need to do so, as it should be called by the equation template. Anyhow, 
I added a background color for the equations and the text of the labels 
and between the equations is colored with the same color of the background !

For example, if I have equation1 and equation2, then the label for 
equation 1 and the text between the two equations take the same color of 
the background !

here's the code for my customization layer:

        <xsl:template match="equation">
                <xsl:variable name="placement">after</xsl:variable>
                <xsl:if test="$placement = 'before'">
                        <xsl:call-template name="formal.object.heading">
                                <xsl:with-param name="placement" 
select="$placement" />
                        </xsl:call-template>
                </xsl:if>
                <fo:block padding="5pt">
                        <xsl:attribute 
name="border-color">black</xsl:attribute>
                        <xsl:attribute 
name="border-style">solid</xsl:attribute>
                        <xsl:attribute 
name="border-width">1px</xsl:attribute>
                        <xsl:attribute name="padding">5pt</xsl:attribute>
                        <xsl:attribute 
name="background-color">#F0F0FF</xsl:attribute>
                        <xsl:apply-templates />
                </fo:block>
                <xsl:if test="$placement != 'before'">
                        <xsl:call-template name="formal.object.heading">
                                <xsl:with-param name="placement" 
select="$placement" />
                               
                        </xsl:call-template>
                </xsl:if>
        </xsl:template>
