Hi,

Converting XHTML to DocBook is not generally possible (in an automatic way).

may be there's not any automatic way but would you tell me any way to do so if you know?

Manually

. Start with the XHTML document, delete and rename tags until you end up with DocBook.
If you have some operations that you know you want to have them performed all the time, on any document that you convert then you can write an XSLT stylesheet to do that processing. In general you can start with a default copy template

Code: Select all


    <xsl:template match="node() | @*">

        <xsl:copy>

            <xsl:apply-templates select="node() | @*"/>

        </xsl:copy>

    </xsl:template>

and add your specific processing rules.

Best Regards,
George

Hi all,

Is this answer from 2006 still true for 14.2 oXygen?
If I want to convert XHTML to DocBook 5, do I have to manually edit the XHTML tags to DocBook tags?

Thanks

You can copy and paste from a browser to a DocBook 5 file and if that is open in the Author editing mode then oXygen will trigger its smart paste conversion to DocBook5

Hope this helps!
