DITA Filtering

[davdup]

Hi!
I would like to filter some glossentries based on the current publication I am working on. I was hoping to use the

Code: Select all

otherprops

attribute with a custom group of values like in the example below:

Code: Select all

I want to show only the entries relative to one book (reference_book, or other_book).
I intended to use a ditaval filter for this, that I wrote like this (for the reference_book example):

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<val>
    <prop action="exclude"/>
    <prop action="include" att="otherprops" val="publication(reference_book)"/>
</val>

But nothing appears in the filtered result... What am I doing wrong?

Thanks for your help!

Hi David,

I do not have time to test right now so if this does not work for you I can perform more tests tomorrow.
As you are using profiling attribute groups the DITAVAL should look like this:

Code: Select all

  <prop action="include" att="publication" val="reference_book"/>

so the filtering is done as if you directly set the attribute "publication" to that specific value in the XML.

Thank you very much...
