I've thought a
bit more about this. Is there one or more pieces of code in the epub
docbook.xsl that controls whether a XHTML chunk is created? What I'd like is
to add a parameter that gives users the choice of turning off a front cover.
If I can find the code that kicks off the writing of a 'cover' chunk, I can
customise a param to either select or ignore that piece of code. Any
suggestions would be really helpful.
Thanks,
Dave Gardiner

Subject: [docbook-apps] Turning off generation of epub cover
Is there an easy
way to turn off the generation of a front cover? I have set up a DB 1.76 NS
customisation that always generates a "cover.html". I've tried various
options in the epub titlepage (where I have a template
name="book.titlepage.recto" similar to the FO titlepage template) by adding
a param value that lets a user select the cover on or off, but I'm lost.
What I'd like is to write in an option that allows: no
"cover.html" to be generated; and exclude the associated cover image info
from toc.ncx and content.opf. I can't follow the logic of covers in
docbook.xsl. Any ideas please?
Thanks
