Remove table numbering

[cjbcjb]

How can I turn off the automatic appending of "Table n" to the front of all table titles? I'm creating webhelp using the oXygen webhelp plugin. Thanks.

Hello,

Sorry, there is no parameter for that in the transformation. You can disable that label in front of the table title by commenting out the xsl:choose element inside the <span class="tablecap"> element in the template <xsl:template name="place-tbl-lbl"> in the file [Oxygen-14.2-install-dir]\frameworks\dita\DITA-OT\xsl\xslhtml\dita2htmlImpl.xsl, that is the xsl:choose element that starts at line 4149 in file [Oxygen-14.2-install-dir]\frameworks\dita\DITA-OT\xsl\xslhtml\dita2htmlImpl.xsl. This xsl:choose element inserts the label in front of the table title so if you comment out/remove it the label will not be inserted anymore in the output.

Thanks, but when I do that, I get a transformation error. I should comment just the xsl:choose in lines 4149-4161, correct?

Yes, that is correct. I commented this xsl:choose element and I did not get any errors with the DITA Map Webhelp transformation. What error do you get in the DITA OT output view at the bottom of the Oxygen window?

I uploaded the modified version of the [Oxygen-14.2-install-dir]\frameworks\dita\DITA-OT\xsl\xslhtml\dita2htmlImpl.xsl stylesheet here.
