Re: Which elements can be changed in DocBook stylesheets?

[Norman Walsh <ndw@xxxxxxxxxx>]

/ Brandon Ibach <bibach@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> was heard to say:
|    From a look at the Docbook stylesheets, it appears that the
| <artheader> and its children never get processed by normal element
| rules, at least not to any effect.  If you search for "artheader" in
| dbinfo.dsl, you'll find a series of rules that create empty sosofos
| for <artheader> and its children.

Artheader (and bookinfo) are processed as part of the titlepage generate
stuff. You can follow this from dbcompon.dsl:

In "element article":

    (make sequence
      (if (and %generate-article-titlepage% 
	       %generate-article-titlepage-on-separate-page%)
	  article-titlepage

And in dbttlpg.dsl, you'll find the code for article-titlepage, which
processes all of the artheader elements in a special mode.

                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm
