RE: [docbook-apps] Author name in header or footer

Hi !

 

Ok, I have a simple solution :

 

In each template header and footer, I
created variables 

 

For book’s title :

 

<xsl:variable
name="BookTitle">

<xsl:choose>

<xsl:when
test="//book/title">

<xsl:value-of
select="//book/title"/>

</xsl:when>

<xsl:otherwise>

<!-- nop -->

</xsl:otherwise>

</xsl:choose>

</xsl:variable>

 

For Author :

 

<xsl:variable
name="Author">

<xsl:choose>

<xsl:when
test="//authorgroup/author[1]/firstname">

<xsl:value-of
select="//authorgroup/author[1]/firstname"/>

</xsl:when>

<xsl:otherwise>

<!-- nop -->

</xsl:otherwise>

</xsl:choose>

</xsl:variable>

 

For revision :

 

<xsl:variable
name="RevInfo">

<xsl:choose>

<xsl:when
test="//revhistory/revision[last()]/revnumber">

<xsl:text>Version
</xsl:text>

<xsl:value-of
select="//revhistory/revision[last()]/revnumber"/>

</xsl:when>

<xsl:otherwise>

<!-- nop -->

</xsl:otherwise>

</xsl:choose>

</xsl:variable>

 

Then, I used these variables into <xsl:template
name="footer.content"> or <xsl:template
name="header.content">

 

<xsl:value-of
select="$BookTitle"/>, etc.

 

Cordialement,

Hi !

 

Thank you for this tip but I find it
with no elegance and simplicity.

Hi

 

You may find the code below helpful.

 

The mistakes I made in getting this to work was:

- not setting the namespace correctly

- not setting up default handling for the book meta data

 

Damon

 

<!--********

  document meta data
element handling

  

  With the way docbook is
structured, default handling for all book meta data is explicitly switched off,

  this is to stop
accidental processing. It is switched on for <date> because that element
is used across the

  document. However (say)
<legalnotice> is not handled. The solution is to created a new mode for
the titlepage

  template, then apply
the usual processing. If this is not here, compile errors and generated. If you
use

  xsl-value, then you only
get the text appearing, and not the processing of the embedded trademark
element

  within legalnotice.
Hence this needs to be here.

********-->

<xsl:template
match="/d:book/d:info/d:legalnotice"
mode="book.titlepage.footer">

  <xsl:apply-templates
/>

</xsl:template>

 

 

<!--********

  footer content

********-->

<xsl:template
name="footer.content">  

           
<xsl:param
name="pageclass" select="''"/>

           
<xsl:param
name="sequence" select="''"/>

           
<xsl:param
name="position" select="''"/>

           
<xsl:param
name="gentext-key" select="''"/>

 

           
<fo:block>       

 

                       
<xsl:if
test="not ($pageclass = 'coversequence' and $sequence = 'first')">

 

                                  
<xsl:choose>

 

                                              
<xsl:when
test="$position = 'left'">      

                                                          
<xsl:apply-templates
select="/d:book/d:info/d:date"/>

                                                          
<fo:block/>

                                                          
<xsl:text>v:
</xsl:text>

                                                          
<xsl:apply-templates
select="/d:book/d:info/d:revhistory/d:revision[last()]/d:revnumber"/>

                                              
</xsl:when>

 

                                              
<xsl:when
test="$position = 'center'">

                                                          
<xsl:apply-templates
select="/d:book/d:info/d:legalnotice"
mode="book.titlepage.footer"/>

                                  
                       
<fo:block/>

                                                          
<xsl:apply-templates
select="/d:book/d:info/d:copyright"
mode="titlepage.mode"/>

                                              
</xsl:when>

 

                                              
<xsl:when
test="$position = 'right'">

                                                          
<xsl:text>Page:
</xsl:text>

                                                          
<fo:page-number/>

                                              
</xsl:when>                                        

 

                                  
</xsl:choose>

 

                       
</xsl:if>

 

           
</fo:block>

 

</xsl:template>

Hi,

 

I would like to
produce a PDF file with docbook-xsl fo stylesheets with authorname in header or
footer. All examples I find on the web don’t work.

And the same question
with the book’s title.
