  • 1.  Italic character in

    Posted 09-21-2009 16:32
    I'm working on a project to document a programming language. It outputs
    to HTML and conforms to DocBook 4.3. Within the function synopsis, we
    need to be able to insert an italicized character in the <funcdef> and
    <paramdef> tags.

    Please see the example below. My use of <emphasis /> below is incorrect
    -- but is here just to show you what I am after. What I need is to have
    an italicized "n" after the type names. Does anyone know how I can
    achieve this within DocBook and using the Norm Walsh stylesheets?

    <funcsynopsis>
    <funcprototype>
    <funcdef>
    int<emphasis>n</emphasis>
    <function>
    functionname
    </function>
    </funcdef>

    <paramdef>int<emphasis>n</emphasis><parameter>x</parameter></paramdef>
    </funcprototype>
    </funcsynopsis>
