Subject: RE: FW: FW: [dita] indexing question


Hi,

If <indexterm> is only used in the index, then all we need is to recommend treating it as a "subflow" element.

Best regards,
Rodolfo

David's new examples help greatly.
 
The <indexterm> content isn't used in place to generate output, but it is used to generate the text for the index entries, so they do need to be translated.
 
Best wishes,
 
Bruce

Hi,


New example:
   The <p> text is complete.
                                                                                                     
    <topic>                                                                                          
    <prolog>                                                                                         
    <indexterm>term one</indexterm>                                                                  
    <indexterm>term two</indexterm>                                                                  
    </prolog>                                                                                        
    <body>                                                                                           
    <p>Paragraph that contains term one <indexterm>term one</indexterm>                              
    and term two <indexterm>term two</indexterm> inside.</p>                                         
    </body>                                                                                          
    </topic>                                                                                         

If the content of <indexterm> is completely ignored when the topic is published as XHTML, PDF or any other format, then this element should be completely ignored at translation time.

The content of <indexterm> doesn't need to be translated if it is only a location marker. The whole element can be replaced with a tag by the the translation tool.

Best regards,
Rodolfo
