Subject: Re: DOCBOOK-APPS: Referencing figure number

Given: <figure id="figure_of_an_airplane"> . . . </figure> You could reference it with: The first airplane (see <xref linkend="figure_of_an_airplane"/>) shows how . . . After processing, it will look like: The first airplane (see Figure 2.4) shows how . . . The "Figure" is localized, so if you have lang="zh_??" in the top element, it will display properly for Chinese (where "??" is either cn or tw). I know it works with lang="ja" (XSL ==> HTML and FO->FOP->PDF paths). If you're doing an example, instead of <figure>, use <example>. The <xref> remains the same but will output "Example 2.4" instead. Hope this helps. -- Michael Westbay Work: Beacon-IT http://www.beacon-it.co.jp/ Home: http://www.seaple.icc.ne.jp/~westbay Commentary: http://www.japanesebaseball.com/
