Subject: citation and xref confusion
Hi, My Short question is: Is <xref> tag inside <citation> allowed in DocBook??? My Long description about why I am asking this question is: --------------------- I want to insert <xref> inside <citation> to produce my bibliography citation inside the brackets, which is something like <citation> <xref linkend ="DKS2001"/> </citation> <biblioentry id="DKS2001" xreflabel="Deepak et.al. 2001"> ... ... </biblioentry> to produce something like [Deepak et.al. 2001] in my output. I tried using simply <xref> in my paragraphs (as suggested in DocBook XSL book by Bob Stayton) but generated text is not inside bracket. Since only citation seems to produce this brackets, I want to insert <xref> inside <citation> to produce the desired result. My problem is, i am using Morphon 3.1.4 editor and it doesn't allow me to insert the <xref> inside <citation> (only before <citation> or after). That seems like <xref> inside the <citation> is not allowed according to DocBook DTD (I am using v4.3). But inserting the <xref> after <citation> and dragging it inside citation (in tree view) seems to be ok (and Morphon doesn't complain ????? I don't know why). Saving the documents and processing with Saxon and FOP produces the desired result without any complain. Why is that so? Although I have found the workaround with my editor, I just want to make sure if it is ok before proceeding with citing my bibliography entries. thanks in advance Deepak K. Shrestha
