Re: [docbook-apps] Chunking Based on Attribute
Hi,

There is no direct support in the HTML chunking 
stylesheet to chunk based on attributes.  However, you could implement 
something like this using a two-step process.  The chunking stylesheet 
supports chunking based on an external chunk TOC, as described in the section 
titled "Manually control chunking" in this reference:

 

http://www.sagehill.net/docbookxsl/Chunking.html#ControllingChunks

 

You could create a custom XSL that extracts such a 
TOC from your document based on your role attribute, and then use that TOC to 
chunk the document in the second step.

Subject: [docbook-apps] Chunking Based on 
  Attribute

  

  

  
Sorry if this is explained elsewhere, but is there a way I 
  can chunk sections based on their attribute, regardless of how deeply they are 
  nested?

  
 

  
For example, I want to chunk all sections that have a 
  role=”chunkHere”, but these sections might appear at many nested levels. I 
  don’t want to chunk sections that have no such attribute, regardless of their 
  nesting level.

  
 

  
Does that make sense? Thanks for any help you can 
  offer.
