Hi Bob,
DOH! I was doing this:
xsltproc --output /tmp/blah.xsl
/usr/share/xml/docbook/stylesheet/docbook-xsl/html/titlepage.xsl
titlepage.templates.xml
instead of:
xsltproc --output /tmp/blah.xsl
/usr/share/xml/docbook/stylesheet/docbook-xsl/template/titlepage.xsl
titlepage.templates.xml
html/titlepage.xsl vs template/titlepage.xsl.
I thought 'template' meant which template; html or fo, rather than
actual 'template'.
thanks!
Matt
