Hi,
The xrefstyle mechanism works with number
labels and titles, but a qandaentry question does not have a title, just one or
more para and other elements. A question can be very long and complex, so
the stylesheet doesn't try to use it for xrefs.
But if you restrict your questions to a
single para, then you could create a customization to use them in xrefs.
If you look at the template in fo/xref.xsl that starts with:
<xsl:template match="qandaentry"
mode="xref-to">
That is the first template called when
generating the text for an xref. It applies templates in
mode="object.xref.markup" which uses the gentext mechanism. In your case,
you should create your own template that matches on question in
mode="object.xref.markup" for processing the question.
<xsl:template match="question"
mode="object.xref.markup">
<xsl:call-template
name="gentext">
<xsl:with-param name="key"
select="'question'"/>
</xsl:call-template>
;
<xsl:text> </xsl:text>
<xsl:apply-templates select="para[1]/node()"/>
</xsl:template>
The select in the second-to-last line
selects the content of the first para of the question. If you just
processed the para element itself, then you would get a para block output, not
an inline output.

Subject: [docbook-apps] Q and A sets with
olinks: no generated text
Hi list,
I have a collection of <qandaset> files,
which are used in master documents of the <article> type. I use olinks
to refer to different <qandaentry>s in these files. However, the
generated links in HTML output show only the question label and number, for
example: "Q:4."
Is there any way to get, for example, "Q: What is
wrong with my olinks?"?
I haven't found anything on this issue in Bob's
book. I have played with different xrefstyle parameter values, but none of
them worked.
Thanks in
advance,
-Zbyszek
