[oXygen-user] Inserting current date into DITA file

[Frank Dissinger]

Hi Stefan,


Thank you for your reply. I already did a similar thing for the 
MiramoPDF plug-in:


     <xsl:variable name="bc.currentDate" 
select="format-date(current-date(), '[Y0001]')"/>
     <xsl:template match="*[@outputclass = 'current_year']" >
            <xsl:value-of select="$bc.currentDate" />
     </xsl:template>


It was a matter of just adding this code to a "custom.xsl" file. In 
oXygen's CHM tranformation, I wouldn't know where add this code. I am 
not XSLT savvy enough.


Regards,

Frank
