Re: [docbook-apps] section'ed qandaentry in toc

Hi Joshua,
This will require an XSLT customization, but you can use a lot of existing
templates to create it.

Start with html/autotoc.xsl, where tables of contents are generated.  If
your top-level element is an article, then the template named component.toc
is called to create its TOC.  That template selects its child nodes (section
elements mostly) and calls 'make.toc' to start the TOC and begin processing
its content recursively.  The make.toc template processes the selected nodes
in mode="toc".

In your case, you will want to change the template with match="section" and
mode="toc" so it also selects qandadiv as its child nodes to process.  It
calls 'subtoc' with those selected  nodes as a parameter, and subtoc
processes each in mode="toc".  But there isn't a template with
match="qandadiv" and mode="toc", so you should create one in your
customization.  It just needs to process the qandadiv in
mode="qandatoc.mode" from html/qandaset.xsl:

<xsl:template match="qandadiv" mode="toc">
  <xsl:apply-templates select="." mode="qandatoc.mode"/>
</xsl:template>

I haven't tested this, so you may need to adjust the nesting of list levels
so they match up, but basically that should generate a qandadiv TOC inside a
section.
