Re: [docbook-apps] XHTML5 Output - Can DOCTYPE be added?
Hi Lars,

The xhtml5 stylesheets already do output that 
DOCTYPE automatically.  I'm not clear why you are not getting it.  
However, the stylesheet is dependent on being used with the version 1.76.1 
distribution.  Is that a typo when you say version 1.7.1?

 

Regarding a customization layer, it should work the 
same way as for other html stylesheets.  If you do a chunking 
customization, you need to use the two file method described in my book for 
chunking.

  Can DOCTYPE be added?

  

Hello,

I'm 
  generating XHTML5 via the DocBook Stylesheets in version 1.7.1 and Bobs xhtml5 
  stylesheets. Would it be possible for the stylesheets to add the 
  

  
<!DOCTYPE html>

  

  
declaration automatically? Perhaps via 
  parameter? 

  

  
I 
  would assume that creation a customization layer for adding xhtml5 is possible 
  but I believe for xhtml5 we would in most cases like to have this included via 
  the standard stylesheets.

  

  
Best 
  regards, Lars
