Subject: Re: [docbook-apps] Website: indexterm, index?
Well, there's good news and there's bad news. The good news is that index and indexterm are permitted inside a webpage element whose DOCTYPE is website-full.dtd, and they do validate. I just tested it. I'm not sure what's going wrong when you try it. The bad news is that they don't do what you want them to do, which is create an index for your website. You have to keep in mind that each webpage document is a separate XML document, and it is processed as a separate document. That means the scope of an index can be no larger than one webpage document. In order for the index to cover all your webpages, they would have to be included as children of a larger container document that is processed all at once. But that isn't how Website works. As it currently ships, Website can't collect index entries from the set of webpage documents and generate a sorted index.
