RE: [docbook-apps] glossary in before lot

Thanks for the solution. Works fine with <xsl:with-param name="content">.

Since I created a similar document as an article in way of solution seeking, I guess I will switch everything tomorrow, since I have found a mail in the archives that says, that omitting pagebreaks with a new chapter is "difficult".

Thanks a lot for your advice. Need to get to sleep now.

Best regards,

Marius

Sorry, I should have tested that suggestion before replying.

Yes, I meant for you to replace the call to list.of.titles with a call to make-glossary. But now I realize that calling that template directly won't work, because it expects the context element to be the glossary element. The way to set the context element when processing out of order is by using the xsl:for-each statement:

...

<xsl:param name="content">

<xsl:for-each select="//d:glossary">

<xsl:call-template name="make-glossary"/>

</xsl:for-each>

</xsl:param>

...

Removing the glossary from the printed table of contents can be done with this:

<xsl:template match="d:glossary" mode="toc"/>

and from the PDF bookmarks using:

<xsl:template match="d:glossary" mode="fop1.outline"/>

Hello,

At first I have to thank you for your fast response, Bob.

I will try to be more precise this time. It is a book, I thought I would have most liberty. I am also using docbook 5 and the 1.77.1 stylesheets.

<xsl:template match="d:glossary"/> suppresses the glossary but not the toc entry for it. I only mention it, because i guess it could be important for the second issue I have now.

        <xsl:if test="contains($toc.params,'glossary') and .//d:glossary">
            <xsl:call-template name="page.sequence">
                <xsl:with-param name="master-reference"
                    select="$lot-master-reference"/>
                <xsl:with-param name="element" select="'toc'"/>
                <xsl:with-param name="gentext-key" select="'Glossary'"/>
               <xsl:with-param name="content">
                   <xsl:call-template name="list.of.titles">
                        <xsl:with-param name="titles" select="'glossary'"/>
                        <xsl:with-param name="nodes" select=".//d:glossary[d:title]"/>
                   </xsl:call-template>
                 </xsl:with-param>
           </xsl:call-template>
        </xsl:if>

The above gets me some output: "???-Verzeichnis" (???-List) and "Abkürzungsverzeichnis" (Glossarytitle) formatted as a list, which is not yet the right format, but the content shows up already.

If I replace <xsl:call-template name="list.of.titles"> by <xsl:call-template name="make-glossary"/> I get the following message:

net.sf.saxon.trans.XPathException: org.apache.fop.fo.ValidationException: Property ID "d5e1" (found on "fo:block") previously used; ID values must be unique within a document! (Siehe Position 23:-1)

My guess is that it doesn't (want to) process the glossary twice.

Of course I then tried to add <xsl:template match="glossary[@role = 'NotInToc']" mode="toc" /> to my customization layer and role = 'NotInToc' to the glossary-tag, but that didn't work at all.

Best regards

Marius

Hi,

Yes, it is possible. If your document is a book,then you need to customize the template named 'make.book.tocs' from fo/division.xsl. If you document is an article, then you need to customize the template named 'make.component.tocs' from fo/component.xsl. In each of those, you can put:

<xsl:call-template name="make-glossary"/>

between the main TOC and the LOTs. If it is a book, then you will need to follow the examples of the LOTs and put the call to that template inside a call to the "page.sequence" utility template to generate a page sequence for it. For an article, there is only one page sequence.

You'll also need to turn off the glossary where it would appear in document order. That can be done with a template like this:

<xsl:template match="glossary"/>

Hello,

I am currently working on my term paper and would like to use docbook. I already spent hours for customization since in Germany universities have strict layout rules regarding term papers. What I couldn't find until now is a way to have the glossary being printed before the list of tables. Is there any way to do it?

If I can't find a way I would be forced to use MS Word. :-(

Best regards and many thanks in advance

Marius
