but one more thing, why doesn't the cmdsynopsis have <a name="abe"></a> inside? The chapter and section headings have their anchors. for example, here is the section div:
<div class="section">
<div class="titlepage">
<div>
<div>
<h2 class="title" style="clear: both">
<a name="abd"></a>
The Section
</h2>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<p></p>
<div class="cmdsynopsis">
<p>
<code class="command">The Command</code>
variable-list ;
</p>
</div>
<p></p>
</div>

Hi Bob,
You are right--I had the attribute set to 1 at some point and turned it off without realizing the consequence.
thanks!

Hi Tim,
By default, the $generate.id.attributes param in the html
stylesheet is set to zero (it generates the old named anchor elements
instead). If you set that to 1, then you should get an id output on
cmdsynopsis.

Subject: [docbook-apps] cmdsynopsis omits xml:id
hi, when I convert DocBook 5 using the 1.77 html (chunk)
stylesheets, the cmdsynopsis element is rendered as a div, but the xml:id is
omitted. Is this a bug or am I misunderstanding? I would have expected the
xml:id to come through as an id in the html.
Test document:
<chapter xmlns="http://docbook.org/ns/docbook"
version="5.0" xml:id="abc">
<info><title>The
Chapter</title></info>
<section
xml:id="abd">
<info><title>The Section</title></info>
<para>
<cmdsynopsis
xml:id="abe" sepchar=" ">
<command>The Command</command>
<arg
choice="plain">variable-list</arg>
<arg
choice="plain">;</arg>
</cmdsynopsis>
</para>
</section>
</chapter>
with this command
line:
xsltproc
/path/to/docbook/xsl-1.77.1/html/chunk.xsl test.xml
the cmdsynopsis element results
in this block of html (I expected the id "abe" on the div):
<div
class="cmdsynopsis">
<p>
<code
class="command">The Command</code>
variable-list ;
</p>
</div>
thanks,
