Re: [docbook-apps] Titlepage customizations for DocBook with XSLT2

[Robert Winslow Dalpe <rwdalpe@gmail.com>]

Erik,

I can't speak to the XSL-FO templates exactly, but for the HTML templates it was sufficient for me to just put the relevant templates as shown in titlepage-templates.xsl into my customization layer. E.g. the following

````
    <xsl:template match="db:book" mode="m:get-titlepage-templates" as="element(tmpl:templates)">
        <tmpl:templates>
            <tmpl:recto>
                <db:cover role="front-cover"/>
                <header tmpl:class="titlepage">
                    <db:title-group />
                    <xsl:if test="/db:book/db:info/db:volumenum">
                        <div class="volume-info">Book <db:volumenum /> of <db:seriesvolnums /></div>
                    </xsl:if>
                    <db:corpauthor />
                    <db:authorgroup />
                    <db:author />
                    <db:editor />
                    <db:othercredit />
                    <div class="bottom-matter">
                        <db:releaseinfo />
                        <db:copyright />
                        <db:legalnotice />
                        <db:pubdate />
                        <db:printhistory />
                        <db:revision />
                        <db:revhistory />
                    </div>
                    <db:abstract />
                </header>
                <hr tmpl:keep="true" />
            </tmpl:recto>
        </tmpl:templates>
    </xsl:template>
   
    <xsl:template match="db:warning" mode="m:get-titlepage-templates" as="element(tmpl:templates)">
        <tmpl:templates>
            <tmpl:titlepage>
                <header>
                    <db:title/>
                </header>
            </tmpl:titlepage>
        </tmpl:templates>
    </xsl:template>
   
    <xsl:template match="db:tip" mode="m:get-titlepage-templates" as="element(tmpl:templates)">
        <tmpl:templates>
            <tmpl:titlepage>
                <header>
                    <db:title/>
                </header>
            </tmpl:titlepage>
        </tmpl:templates>
    </xsl:template>
````

It seems like you said you tried that already, but maybe give it another check?

Hello,
I thought I'd start looking at migrating to XSLT 2 support, to get access to a few xpath features that would help in source code integrated documentation projects.

My XSLT 1.0 toolchain consists of xsltproc and commandline FOP, for XSLT2 I'm currently trying Saxon from http://cdn.docbook.org/release/2.0.20/docbook-xslt2-2.0.20-jar.zip

I'm having trouble finding my way around titlepage customizations (print, in this case). In the old toolchain I had titlepage XML spec files that I processed with the titlepage XSL in docbook into titlepage XSL that I imported into my customization layer.

In the 2.0 stylesheets I haven't found how to do this. I can edit xslt/base/fo/titlepage-templates.xsl and see end results, but overlaying the templates from it in my customization layer doesn't seem to have any effect. Does anyone have any guidance?
