Re: [docbook-apps] Custom numbering scheme for a DocBook document(legal style stylesheet)

Right of the bat i think the problem is that you're trying to call an XSL stylesheet from a CSS one. CSS and XSL are two completely different animals and I don't think they were ever meant to work the way you're trying. 

Take a look at Bob Sayton's book, particularly the section n creating customization layers. http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/CustomMethods.html#CustomizationLayer ; I think that'll help you achieve  your objective.

Hello,

I'm using dblatex v. 0.2.12-4 (GNU/Linux Ubuntu Lucid 10.04 64bit).

===

I'm trying to number DocBook document in the 'legal' (lawyer) style, to

say:

1 Chapter one

 Article 1. Article one

 Article 2. Article two

2 Chapter two

 Article 3. Article three (*not* 'one' again)

 Article 4. Article four (*not* 'two' again)

===

To achieve that, I have modified a stylesheet, which can be found in:

/usr/share/xml/docbook/stylesheet/dblatex/xsl/sections.xsl

to be able to include it in a stylesheet (renamed as 'style.xsl'), that

I call style.css:

===

<?xml version="1.0"?>

  <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"

version="1.0">

    <xsl:import href=""style.xsl"/>
  </xsl:stylesheet>

===

That I include at process time:

#dblatex estatutos.xml -p style.css -o estatutos.pdf

I add some lines at the end of the file style.xsl which are the

following:

http://www.dpawson.co.uk/xsl/sect2/N5758.html#d7876e154 (recommended

here, but simplified)

===

  <xsl:template match="sect1">

      <xsl:number level="any" from="chapter" format="1. "/>

      <xsl:apply-templates/>

  </xsl:template>

===

But this doesn't work, because I loose all the default style, I only get

the number (fortunately, in the correct sequence). But no bold text, no

new lines, no title text itself...

Mi exact doubt is: how can I add the parameter level="any" (by default,

it's 'single') to a stylesheet without breaking it?

Of course, I can attach the documents if necessary.

Thank you!

Néstor.
