Subject: Re: [docbook-apps] how to link to a URL?
Thanks. That did the trick. By the way, I'm using xincludes. I did declare the xlink namespace already in the main index.xml, but I didn't do it for the included file. When I validated index.xml, it normally validates all xincludes; in this case, it would still show the same error unless I add the namespace declaration at the top of each Xinclude file. (i.e., <chapter xmlns="http://docbook.org/ns/docbook" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" version="5.0" xml:id="basics">. I don't know if this is expected behavior. Once again, thanks.
