RE: [docbook-apps] How do I remove the border around Webhelp graphics?

[Jeff Powanda <jpowanda@vocera.com>]

Here's the XML for my graphic:

<mediaobject>
	<imageobject>
		<imagedata contentwidth="3.5in" width="3.5in" fileref="graphics/test.png"/>
	</imageobject>
</mediaobject>

In the resulting Webhelp HTML output, the graphic is placed within a table that is used for a viewport:

<div class="mediaobject" align="left">
  <table border="0" summary="manufactured viewport for HTML img" style="cellpadding: 0; cellspacing: 0;" width="315">
    <tr>
      <td align="left"><img src="graphics/test.png" width="315" /></td>
    </tr>
  </table>
</div>

Looking at the XML source for your documentation for the Webhelp stylesheet, I noticed that when you added a graphic the <imagedata> element has only a fileref attribute, like this:

<imagedata fileref="graphics/test.png"/>

In the resulting Webhelp HTML output, the graphic is NOT placed within a table:

<div class="figure-contents">
  <div class="mediaobject"><img src="graphics/test.png" /></div>
</div>

I found that the best way to solve this problem is to set the following parameter:

<xsl:param name="make.graphic.viewport">0</xsl:param>

This prevents a table from being used to frame the image.

Regards,
Jeff

I'm sure it's a css thing, but I don't see any border around the image
on this page:

http://snapshots.docbook.org/xsl/webhelp/docs/content/ch02s05.html

Can you provide or point to an example that shows the problem? (output
and markup would be great)

Thanks,
David
