Subject: RE: DOCBOOK-APPS: How to use appendixes

You could customize your stylesheet to list them as appendices. From the markup side, however, <book> <chapter/> <chapter/> <appendix/> <glossary/> <index/> </book> has two chapters and an appendix. The glossary and index are for the whole book. <book> <chapter/> <chapter/> <appendix> <glossary/> <index/> </appendix> </book> With this markup, the glossary and index are specific to the appendix, which has its own content. That is why you are finding that you need a <para></para> in your appendix. Otherwise the appendix has no content. -- Kevin M. Dunn Professor of Chemistry Hampden-Sydney College --
