Subject: Re: DOCBOOK-APPS: External Graphic references?
/ "M. Wroth" <mark@astrid.upland.ca.us> was heard to say: | Is there anyway to specify the location of an external-graphic in something | like a catalog file? Sure. Use an entity reference: <!DOCTYPE book PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook V4.1//EN" [ <!ENTITY mygraphic PUBLIC "publicid" "systemid"> ]> <book> ... <imagedata entityref="mygraphic"/> ... The parser will use the catalog to resolve 'publicid' and 'systemid' for 'mygraphic'. You don't need a public id there, if you put an appropriate system entry in your catalog. | What I would like to do is to specify the location of the logo file with a | formal public identifier and fix the location of the system entity in the | catalog file. But if that's doable, I don't see how; external-graphic | sakes a system identifier, not an FPI. Oh, you want to do this *in the DSSSL stylesheet*. Hmm.... That might be a bit trickier...you could make the filename an entity reference and put the entity declaration in an external file and load that external entity with public/system ids. Kindof a hack, but I think it would work. Be seeing you, norm -- Norman Walsh <ndw@nwalsh.com> | There is a great difference http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/ | between seeking how to raise a Chair, DocBook Technical Committee | laugh from everything, and seeking | in everything what may justly be | laughed at.--Lord Shaftesbury
