Hello,
You need to create a topic of type
glossentry and link it from the topic that uses that glossary term. In the XHTML output of a DITA map there is a page for each topic so each topic of type
glossentry will have a separate XHTML page. You can link from other topic to a topic of type
glossentry with an element
related-links, for example:
Code: Select all
<related-links>
<link href="../glossary/ddl.xml" format="dita" type="glossentry">
<linktext>Data Definition Language</linktext>
</link>
</related-links>
The link to the
Data Definition Language glossary entry is added in the section
Related information of the topic that contains the link.
When editing a DITA map in the Author mode you add a topic reference to a glossentry topic with the action
Insert a DITA Topic Reference available on the toolbar
Author custom actions. In the
Type comb box of the
Insert Topic Reference dialog select the
glossentry value.
Regards,
Sorin
