Re: [docbook-apps] issue with 1.79.1 stylesheets and table id

[Bob Stayton <bobs@sagehill.net>]

Hi,
I think what is happening here is that you have DocBook 5 document 
written in the DocBook namespace but are using the non-namespaced 
version of the stylesheet that is better matched to DocBook 4.  When 
that happens, the stylesheet detects the namespace, and then converts 
the document to DocBook 4 before applying formatting templates.  Part of 
that conversion is to change each instance of xml:id in the document to 
id, so that your new template does not match.

The solution is to either switch to the namespaced version of the 
stylesheets (recommended for Docbook 5), or change the customized 
template to match="@id".
