Re: [docbook-apps] If I nest parts, I stop getting TOC for the top-level

Subject: Re: [docbook-apps] If I nest parts, I stop getting TOC for the top-level part.

*slaps forehead* I just checked http://www.docbook.org/tdg/en/html/part.html and you're quite right, Dick, part is not a valid child for part.

I just thought it was because I tried it and it worked (everything but the TOC).

ANYWAY! I'll have to figure out how to restructure my material, but at least that mystery is solved. Thanks!!

Best,

Hi Aleksey,

I'm pretty sure (99.9%) that having a part inside a part is invalid, so the stylesheets probably aren't set up to handle that situation.

Hi. I have a "part" inside a "book", and when I generate the TOC it includes the TOC for the part.

But if I have a part inside that part (which is inside a book), then I don't get a TOC for the part that is inside the book (the top-level part).

What I want is a complete TOC that lists everything from the highest level to the lowest.

Here is what I've tried:

I tried a few parameters from http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/doc/html/toc_index.html that seemed like they might be relevant:

Bump up toc.max.depth. I am going set -> book -> part -> part -> chapter. So I'd think a depth of 5 would be enough... let me make it 99, to give some margin...

<xsl:param name="toc.max.depth">99</xsl:param>

I don't think this next attempt is right, it says section not part, but thought it wouldn't hurt:

<xsl:param name="generate.section.toc.level" select="99"></xsl:param>

And let's make sure "part" is set to show up in toc:

<xsl:param name="generate.toc">
appendix toc,title
article/appendix nop
article toc,title
book toc,title,figure,table,example,equation

chapter toc,title
part toc,title
preface toc,title
qandadiv toc
qandaset toc
reference toc,title
sect1 toc
sect2 toc
sect3 toc
sect4 toc
sect5 toc
section toc
set toc,title
</xsl:param>

My document is written in DocBook XML V4.4. I'm generating HTML output using xmlto v0.0.23

I'm not sure what else to try... there is a <toc> element but I want a dynamically generated TOC.

Any suggestions?
