Subject: AW: [docbook-apps] Listings placeable at the End of Printed Output?


Sorry again, and this time you see me annoyed. Maybe it’s best if you leave the mailing list, yes.

 

1)      As I interpret the list correctly, you cannot claim “an exclusive communication” to and from Bob Stayton. The list is about users helping users. That’s my ponit of view. If the majority of the readers here have a different oppinion, please let me know. As long as I have the feeling that I am doing the right thing here, you may not forbid me to answer on ANY posting here (including yours). In this case, sorry for trying to help you.

2)      I am probably not the professional in your eyes. But believe me, I also put hundreds of hours into DocBook XSL to customize it.

3)      Yes, I have fully read the full discussion. Still, my oppinion is that the example is plain and clear. I could use it out of the box within two minutes. I don’t know, where your problem was.

 

Good luck and bye.

Ben

I would actually appreciate to have my request answered by the DocBook consulting exclusively. Besides, you won't manage to let me look like a fool.

 

No, the example was not plain enough, which you would have noticed, if you had read the whole discussion.

 

I had asked clear questions containing accurate specifications and received partially helpful as also partially wrong answers, which turned out to be useless as a whole in the end, because the aim of generating the required appendix in the required form could not be reached by the support, I got here so far even from sides I had not asked at all.

 

So, as a résumé, I regrettably must say that all of this here is a complete waste of time for me and the next thing, I shall do is to unsubscribe from this - in my view - useless mailing list.

 

Best regards

Kai

Hi, sorry for misunderstanding. It was not my intention to make you look a fool. I simply couldn’t understand the problem, because the example was plain enough and was running at once with my config. Sometimes I see really strange side effects when parsing/transforming invalid XML… So, I thought, let you know that it was not well formed, is a good idea. Ok, it wasn’t. ;-)

 

Regarding the issue: Combining the standard match=”appendix” template from fo/components.xsl helped me a little bit. At least you get an appendix title and a page number. Therefore, a toc entry with page number with link and also PDF bookmark.

 

Nevertheless: There is some fine tuning to do. Still, the LOTs don’t have titles generated in the toc.

 

I hope I didn’t get you wrong again.

regards,

Ben

Hi,

 

As to the missing </xsl:if> tag in the customization example below: a copy fault, occurring quite frequently when copying something from sources all over the web.

 

But I did not report any XSLT syntax error being my current issue. Be assured, that the XSL customization layer I use is both well-formed and valid.

 

Eventually, after a series of misunderstandings the intended appendix elements (figures, tables, examples) are written to the end of FO output.

 

HOWEVER:

(1)

As TOC entry I currently receive: "APPENDIX A. List of Figures, Tables, Examples ....................................  " yet without a page number being displayed and therefore not a clickable TOC entry, which is rather unpleasant.

So, how can I configure an appendix TOC entry according to the common chapter or section TOC entries?

(2)

Furthermore, the appendix configured this way does not have a title (like: "APPENDIX") displayed on the page, the appendix starts with. Instead of first showing an appendix title, the figure element title ("List of Figures") is directly displayed. How could I possibly adjust this? The related DocBook XML contains an appendix element with a "role=lot" attribute, a specified title and an "id=app_a" attribute, which does not prevent the Apache 1.1 FOP from displaying a "WARNING: Page 3: Unresolved ID reference "app_a" found." which is "WARNING: Page 3: Unresolved ID reference "d61e2804" found." otherwise, when not specifying an 'id' attribute value.

 

Kai

Kai,

 

I checked the example as well, using Xalan/FOP1.1 and DB4.5. Everything is fine, and I received the LOTs within my appendix at the end of the document.

 

Maybe some ideas:

-          Check if you had an appendix element with a role attribute filled with ‘lot’.

-          Check your template. The template below is not well formed by the way (missing closing xs:if element.)

 

Regards,

Ben

No problem... I had also already tried leaving out the namespace prefix, the result is the same: No appendix is created at the end of the PDF.

 

Currently, I am using the following customization (extract):

 

<?xml version='1.0'?>

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format" xmlns:d="http://docbook.org/ns/docbook" version="1.0">

     ...

     <xsl:import href="">

     ...

     <xsl:param name="generate.toc">

     appendix nop <!-- tried also: toc,title resp. toc,title,figure,table,example -->

     ...

     book toc,title

     ...

     </xsl:param>

 

     <!-- Template adjustment to have lists of titles (figures, tables, examples) attached to the end of printed output -->

     <xsl:template match="appendix[@role = 'lot']">

 

        <xsl:variable name="lot-master-reference">

         <xsl:call-template name="select.pagemaster">

            <xsl:with-param name="pageclass" select="'lot'"/>

         </xsl:call-template>

        </xsl:variable>

 

        <xsl:if test="//figure">

         <xsl:call-template name="page.sequence">

            <xsl:with-param name="master-reference"

                               select="$lot-master-reference"/>

            <xsl:with-param name="element" select="'toc'"/>

            <xsl:with-param name="gentext-key" select="'ListofFigures'"/>

            <xsl:with-param name="content">

              <xsl:call-template name="list.of.titles">

                 <xsl:with-param name="titles" select="'figure'"/>

                 <xsl:with-param name="nodes" select="//figure"/>

              </xsl:call-template>

            </xsl:with-param>

         </xsl:call-template>

 

        <xsl:if test="//table">

         <xsl:call-template name="page.sequence">

            <xsl:with-param name="master-reference"

                               select="$lot-master-reference"/>

            <xsl:with-param name="element" select="'toc'"/>

            <xsl:with-param name="gentext-key" select="'ListofTables'"/>

            <xsl:with-param name="content">

              <xsl:call-template name="list.of.titles">

                 <xsl:with-param name="titles" select="'table'"/>

                 <xsl:with-param name="nodes" select="//table"/>

              </xsl:call-template>

            </xsl:with-param>

         </xsl:call-template>

         </xsl:if>

 

        <xsl:if test="//example">

         <xsl:call-template name="page.sequence">

            <xsl:with-param name="master-reference"

                               select="$lot-master-reference"/>

            <xsl:with-param name="element" select="'toc'"/>

            <xsl:with-param name="gentext-key" select="'ListofExamples'"/>

            <xsl:with-param name="content">

              <xsl:call-template name="list.of.titles">

                 <xsl:with-param name="titles" select="'example'"/>

                 <xsl:with-param name="nodes" select="//example"/>

              </xsl:call-template>

            </xsl:with-param>

         </xsl:call-template>

         </xsl:if>

        

     </xsl:template>

     ...

 

</xsl:stylesheet>

 

For me it seems as if only the standard creation of Lists of Titles in the document's front were working in DocBook V4.5

Sorry, I assumed you were using DocBook5 and the namespaced version of

the stylesheets, now I see that you are using DocBook 4.   In the

customization I gave you, just remove the "d:" namespace prefix from the element names, then the stylesheet will recognize the elements in your document.
