Re: [docbook-apps] How to avoid page breaks after sections: DocBook to ePub

For all sections. I only have sections in the Preface right now, but it probably makes sense to prevent for all, in case I want to add sections within chapters down the road. 

Thanks.

Hi,

Did you want to prevent such breaks for all sections, or only sections within the preface?

Subject: [docbook-apps] How to avoid page breaks after sections: DocBook to ePub

Hi, 

I have sections in the Preface in my DocBook document and when I transform to ePub (using ANT in Oxygen), it puts a page break after the first one, and each of the subsequent ones. 

So the Preface in my ePub consists of four different .html files that are displayed in the ePub ebook as separate pages. Looks bad, and wastes a lot of screen space. 

I tried putting this line <xsl:param name="refentry.pagebreak" select="0"/>  in this template <xsl:template name=”section.heading”> in the docbook.xsl file, but it didn't work.

I also tried putting that line in my custom .xsl file. Nothing.  

Any ideas? 

Thanks, DC
