Hi Norm,

Thanks for confirming.

Actually I did, but wasn't successfull. :-)

The usual docbook.xsl works like a charm. I don't have any problems with it so 
far. However, for some unknown reason, the chunk.xsl doesn't work for me 
(yet). I used Saxon9 with the original DocBook XSLT 2.0 stylesheet like this:

$ saxon9 -xi -s:en/xml/DoCookbook.xml \
         -xsl:frameworks/db-xslt2/xslt/base/html/chunk.xsl

Interestingly, this doesn't print any "Writing ..." messages. I get these 
files now:

  chunk-appendix-d62e5692.html  chunk-book-d62e2.html
  chunk-chapter-d62e2464.html  chunk-chapter-d62e475.html
  chunk-preface-d62e179.html  [...]

Ok, it seems, the naming has been changed, but strangly I didn't get an 
index.html file. My naive thought was to have some navigation headers, but 
they don't show up in my HTML files. Maybe there is some magic which I've 
missed. I would love to use the chunking stylesheet too. :-)


Oh, by the way: 
When I've played with the XSLT2 stylesheets, I've came across some bugs. As I 
wasn't sure if you prefer still the Sourceforge ticker or Github, I used the 
former. Here are some pointers, hope they are helpful:

#3464876  xslt2: keycap/@function not used
#3464633  xslt2: Parameter img.src.path has no effect
#3450421  xslt2: Relative paths for transclusion do not work
#3431422  xslt2: menuchoice is not correctly rendered

Thanks Norman! :-)
