DOCBOOK-APPS: xmllint - xinclude

[fyl2xp1 <vnhu38f93@subdimension.com>]

OK, not really specific to docbook, well It is

for my project which is entirely in docbook.

But this refers to generating html output.

 

I am using ant to compile all my docbook

sources, this is no problem. I deciced that

it would be a good idea to modularise

my html pages that are serving the docbook

documents. This was because I had a

common menu which appeared in all

the items so it was tedious to edit all the items'

web pages when I wanted to add a new item.

 

I pulled the common menu out and placed it in

a separate XML file, then placed xincludes

inside each of the html files to pull the common

menu in. My problem occurs when doing this

using xmllint and its --xinclude option.  Everything

is output fine, except:

 

<style type="text/css" media="all">@import

&quot;../../nice.css&quot;;</style>

 

The I need the ../../nice.css bit to be in actual

quotes, not entity references, it seems as though

xmllint changes these references because it thinkgs

they are content in the html page, I have tried

various output options with xmllint but I cannot

seem to fix this problem.  Is there a way to do this,

all I want --xinclude to do is, do the xinclude but leave

the rest of my document untouched.

 

Regards
