Hi Jeff,
Here is what is happening. The stylesheet
interprets a relative path in the stylesheet parameter $target.database.document
as relative to the directory containing the document being processed. The
profile-chunk.xsl stylesheet runs the profiling step on your file and saves the
result as a copy of your document in memory, before applying the formatting
stylesheets to the profiled copy. But the in-memory document is not a file, and
so it does not have base directory. So relative paths for olinkdb.xml
cannot work.
You have two choices:
a. Use profile-chunk.xsl, and use a full path
for target.database.document parameter.
b. Use two-step profiling and a relative
path, so the profiled version is a file that has a base directory.
The Next and Previous issue could be in the way you
structure your customization layer. Chunking customization requires a
special setup, as described in:

Subject: [docbook-apps] Using HTML
profiling breaks olinks and HTML navigation
I tried implementing support for
conditionalized text in my documentation. I followed the instructions at http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/Profiling.html
and everything seemed to go smoothly. PDF output with conditionalized text
works great.
However, I encountered a few
problems with HTML output.
I would like chunked HTML output
(several small files instead of one file), so I had been importing this
stylesheet in my customization layer:
<xsl:import
href="../xsl/html/chunk.xsl"/>
To use profiling (conditions), I
imported this stylesheet instead:
<xsl:import
href="../xsl/html/profile-chunk.xsl"/>
Since I’m using modular documents,
I use olinks for cross-referencing. After I switched to using the profiling
stylesheet, the olinks can’t be resolved. I get errors like
this:
warning: failed to load external
entity "olinkdb.xml"
Olink error: could not open target
database 'olinkdb.xml'.
Error: unresolved olink:
targetdoc/targetptr = 'bookid/topicid'.
All of the olinks resolved fine
before I switched to importing the profiling stylesheet. Also, HTML navigation
(for example, Previous and Next links) is now missing from the HTML output.
Again, it worked fine before I imported the profiling
stylesheet.
Has anyone encountered these
problems?
BTW, I’m using the following
tools:
DocBook 4.5 XSL
1.7.2
FOP
0.93
xsltproc
Thanks in advance for your
help.
