Re: [docbook-apps] help with a simple customization template

[Tim Arnold <jtim.arnold@gmail.com>]

Thanks for that push in the right direction Peter. It was indeed the missing fileref--when I populate that in the source xml, my template does get picked up.

Probably this is an interesting corner-case (or maybe not that interesting), but thanks for helping me get to back to work!

When I'm not sure whether my customization template is being used, I
drop in an <xsl:message />.

<xsl:template match="d:inlineequation/d:inlinemediaobject[@remap='math']/d:imageobject/d:imagedata">
    <xsl:message>FINDME: ***********************************</xsl:message>
    <xsl:element name="img">
      <xsl:attribute name="class">math</xsl:attribute>
    </xsl:element>
  </xsl:template>

If you see "FINDME" in your console output, you know the template is being used.

Your empty imagedata element seems like it's likely to cause confusion
since you're not including any imagedata. But I haven't looked into
the default handling of imageobject and imagedata.
