Title: reprinting the toc?

One way to get that is to publish your content in an eclipse infocenter. Use the xsls provided in the distribution to generate an eclipse plugin from your doc, then set up a standalone infocenter. Here are the docs on setting up eclipse help standalone, which also provide an example of what eclipse helps running standalone looks like:

 

http://help.eclipse.org/help30/index.jsp?topic=/org.eclipse.platform.doc.isv/reference/misc/help_infocenter.html

 

The infocenter has a sync button, show/hide toc, internationalized search, all for free :-)

Subject: [docbook-apps] reprinting the toc?

Hello.

Is there anyone out there that has bene able to display the book's toc in a colapsble folder format, (on each page off to the side) and expand the appropriate folder depending on the page that the user is viewing? For instance, if the user is reading chapper 3 section 4, the navigation would collapse all chapters but chapter 3 and maybe even highlight section 4's title.

Thanks!
