Re: [docbook-apps] [xhtml-1_1][header.navigation] An unallowed attribute

[Denis Bradford <denis.bradford@verizon.net>]

Hi Devine,

afaik, copying the template to your customization is the right way to 
go, as described in http://sagehill.net/docbookxsl/CustomizingPart.html.
It's certainly better than directly editing the stock templates.

If it's a bug and the template gets fixed in a future release, you can 
simply delete the copy of the template from your customization after you 
install that release. That's the theory anyway.

hth,
Denis
