Dave,
I do something similar also. For HTML generation, I make sure all images (including Docbook images) are in one place. This makes Saxon complain about not seeing the images, but I resolve that afterwards by copying the images to the publishing image directory.
However, I have a lot of images in my directories that may not only be for HTML, because I also produce the FO/PDF and MSHELP docs. Since I don't want to copy the "whole mess" I run an XSL template on my XML books to output a batch file with the copying instructions as to which images are actually needed and leaving the rest of the "mess" behind.
I also keep the filespaths in my XML relative which make portability a bit easier.
Regards,
Dean Nelson

- For a website, set the user parameters "navig.graphics.path",
"admon.graphics.path" (and all other image paths) to either
"/graphics/" or "http://graphics.example.com/". Put all your graphics
in that dir.
- For your local disk, set "navig.graphics.path",
"admon.graphics.path" (and all other image paths) to
"/path/to/my/graphics" (or "C:\Path\To\My\Graphics"?). Put all your
graphics in that dir.
Personally, I just use softlinks for the images dir, but I'm not sure
whether these are available on your platform.
cheers,
Remko
