[oXygen-user] Macro to Strip Tags from DocBook Olink target.dbFile

[Miller, Ray (Centech)]

>> I think the effect of surrounding the chapter title in an "i" element
in 
the olink target file is intended, not a side effect as you can see in 
the template which generates it:

   <xsl:template match="chapter|appendix" mode="insert.title.markup">
       <xsl:param name="purpose"/>
       <xsl:param name="xrefstyle"/>
       <xsl:param name="title"/>

       <xsl:choose>
           <xsl:when test="$purpose = 'xref'">
               <i>
                   <xsl:copy-of select="$title"/>
               </i>
           </xsl:when>
           <xsl:otherwise>
               <xsl:copy-of select="$title"/>
           </xsl:otherwise>
       </xsl:choose>
   </xsl:template>

You can remove the <i> and </i> tags in a customization layer of the 
main DocBook stytlesheet which duplicates this template and modifies it 
by removing these tags. Apply the customization layer instead of the 
main DocBook stylesheet to remove the tags prior to transformations and 
perform the transformations at the same time (if collect.xref.targets is

set to 'yes').<<


I see that now. But the target database file will not validate against
targetdatabase.dtd with the <i> tags. Is this a developer oversight or
an error in my usage?
