Assigning Default Role Values to Elements

docbook-rng 5.0b9 xsl-1.71.1 saxon-6.5.5 oxygen-7.2 (eclipse-3.2.1 plugin)

First, located a code fragment from Bob Stayton’s excellent book to generate bare HTML content (remove the <html>, <head>, and <body> tags, as well as the template calls that fill the <head> element and generate the header and footer). In the enterprise this is a major issue. Output will be Internet-specific. Enterprise Intranet Portal HTML and FO (PDF) will continue to utilize out-of-the-box DocBook XSL with just a few customizations.

I must now assign default role values to numerous elements to match the enterprise’s HTML CSS class selectors. Can someone post a stylesheet customization example; elements include emphasis, emphasis role=strong, chapter, sect1-5, entry (thead), entry (tbody), entry (entrytbl tbody), etc. *.propagates.style stringparms will all be set to 1.

Combined with bare HTML content generation, this customization will result in the organization’s default DocBook stylesheet for Internet publication.

Assistance would be greatly appreciated.
