Re: [docbook-apps] Another index-related question

Hi Richard

The following worked for me.

<index><title>Index</title>

<para>

Names in parentheses indicate the parents of an individual. This convention is used to differentiate between individuals with the same name.

</para>

</index>

It validated and I was able to output to both html and pdf.

As long as I'm harping on indexes, is there an easy way to get introductory text into the beginning of a generated index? I'd like to have a paragraph that describes typographical conventions in the index, or for another use case, be able to introduce a specialized index.

I could do this by hand, after the index is generated, but if there is a better, cleaner way to do this, it would be nice.

Best Regards,
Dick
