Re: [docbook-apps] [HELP] How can I get rid of the output of the <revhistory /> tag in the EPUB output

["Bob Stayton" <bobs@sagehill.net>]

Hi,
I would have written those custom templates to match on revhistory, not on 
the descendants of revhistory:

<!-- Get rid of the revhistory element -->
<xsl:template match="d:revhistory" mode="titlepage.mode" />
<xsl:template match="d:revhistory" />

Did you try that?
