That would be:
- Book title and navigation buttons (prev/next) in top pane
- TOC in left pane
- Contents in right pane (chunked XHTML)
- Legalese in bottom right pane
Bob's fine book explains how to create similar output with frames (http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/OtherOutputForms.html#Xhtml), but I need to use something more modern (<div>s). With the DocBook style sheets, the XHTML created via xsltproc contains lots of <div> containers. Those <div>s don't have IDs, but that's a fairly straightforward fix using a customization layer. Once they have IDs, the respective portions of the XHMTL can be displayed in the appropriate <div> containers.
The tough thing is to display the TOC in the left <div>
at all times. In our current XHTML output, the TOC is just on the
start page.
Has anyone done something similar already? Any pointers
appreciated!
