When transforming using DocBook 1.76.1-ns 
stylesheets
to epub, I need to generate meta tags for DC.identifier. 

 

The XML book file has, immediately inside an 
info
element:

<biblioid
 class
="isbn">9780643096059
</biblioid>

        

<biblioid class="doi"/>

 

I need to generate a separate meta element 
for each and
every biblioid using a variation of Dublin Core, such that for the ISBN I 
want
the meta element to appear with an additional “scheme” attribute within 
the
XHTML <head> as:

<meta 
name="DCTERMS.identifier" scheme="
DCTERMS.ISBN" content="
9780643096059">

The scheme 
attribute is derived from the biblioid
class attribute. 

I’ve tried to 
modify the head.content template with
this code (which sits inside the code beginning with <xsl:if 
test="$generate.meta.abstract != 0">):

<xsl:if test="$info and $info/d:biblioid">

                

<meta 
name
=
"DCTERMS.identifier">

                    

<xsl:if test="@class='doi'">

                        

<xsl:attribute name="scheme">

                            

<xsl:text>
DCTERMS.DOI</xsl:text>

                        

</xsl:attribute>

                        

<xsl:attribute name="content">

                            

<xsl:for-each select="$info/d:biblioid[@class='doi']">

                                

<xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(.)"/>

                                

<xsl:if test="position() &lt;
last()"
>

                                    

<xsl:text> 

</xsl:text>

                                

</xsl:if>

                            

</xsl:for-each>

                        

</xsl:attribute>

                    

</xsl:if>

                    

<xsl:if test="@class='isbn'">

                        

<xsl:attribute name="scheme">

                            

<xsl:text>
DCTERMS.ISBN</xsl:text>

                        

</xsl:attribute>

                        

<xsl:attribute name="content">

                            

<xsl:for-each select="$info/d:biblioid[@class='isbn']">

                                

<xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(.)"/>

                                

<xsl:if test="position() &lt;
last()"
>

                                    

<xsl:text> 

</xsl:text>

                                

</xsl:if>

                            

</xsl:for-each>

                        

</xsl:attribute>

                    

</xsl:if>

                    

<xsl:if test="@class='issn'">

                        

<xsl:attribute name="scheme">

                            

<xsl:text>
DCTERMS.ISSN</xsl:text>

                        

</xsl:attribute>

                        

<xsl:attribute name="content">

                            

<xsl:for-each select="$info/d:biblioid[@class='issn']">

         
                       

<xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(.)"/>

                                

<xsl:if test="position() &lt;
last()"
>

                                    

<xsl:text> 

</xsl:text>

                                

</xsl:if>

                            

</xsl:for-each>

                        

</xsl:attribute>

                    

</xsl:if>

                

</meta>

            

</xsl:if>

 

All I get is a meta tag with nothing
after the meta name:

<meta 
name="DCTERMS.identifier"/>

 

Can you please suggest better logic.

Thanks,
