Re: [docbook] Generating custom class attribute for HTML output

[Halm Reusser <halm.reusser@switch.ch>]

Hi Bob,

thanks for your advice. I did it a little bit different, I put all the stuff to the
my variablelist REQ/REC customization, also the admonition stuff.

<xsl:template match="varlistentry/term">
  <span class="{parent::varlistentry/@role}term">
    <xsl:call-template name="anchor"/>
    <xsl:call-template name="simple.xlink">
      <xsl:with-param name="content">
        <xsl:choose>
         <xsl:when test="parent::varlistentry/@role = 'REQ'">
          <img class="{parent::varlistentry/@role}img" src="{parent::varlistentry/@role}.png" alt="Requirement"/>
          <xsl:text>REQ-</xsl:text>
          <xsl:variable name="reqnumber">
            <xsl:number count="varlistentry[@role = 'REQ']" level="any"/>
          </xsl:variable>
          <xsl:number value="$reqnumber+-1" format="01"/>
         </xsl:when>
         <xsl:when test="parent::varlistentry/@role = 'REC'">
          <img class="{parent::varlistentry/@role}img" src="{parent::varlistentry/@role}.png" alt="Recommendation"/>
          <xsl:text>REC-</xsl:text>
          <xsl:variable name="recnumber">
            <xsl:number count="varlistentry[@role = 'REC']" level="any"/>
          </xsl:variable>
          <xsl:number value="$recnumber+-1" format="01"/>
         </xsl:when>


With css, it looks now very nice.


The nasty thing is, that I define a lot things agian (duplicate) in my FO-customization layer,
cause I did not understand how to recall other templates...
