Re: [docbook-apps] Breaking 'code' lines in tables for FO output (Apache FOP to PDF)

Hi Graeme,
If you are using DocBook 5, then element names in any stylesheet 
customization need have the DocBook namespace prefix (d:entry) as described 
here.

http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/CustomDb5Xsl.html

If not, they don't match on elements and do not work.
