Dick,
Thank you for including your command line, which is where my problem
lies. One of the first people who responded to my post asked me about
xinclude for the style sheets, but since I'm new to DocBook, I didn't
realize that it also serves as a switch for the xsltproc command. Using
your command line, I was also able to obtain html with correct section
navigation. Despite the errors, I previously did obtain html output as
well, but just without section navigation.
Fyi, I'm running Windows XP Version 2002 SP3. Libxslt, which includes
xsltproc.exe is 1.1.24. DocBook-xsl style sheets are 1.74.0
(2008-06-02).
We built a GUI to run the style sheets and will need to modify it to
accommodate switches. For now, it's just the command line.
Since it has taken some time to resolve my problem, where would I have
found a complete example for what I was trying to accomplish? I didn't
think that integrating a few sections into a chapter would pose any
major problems, but that was not the case. For the newly initiated,
complete tested examples are the best, rather than excerpts here and
there depending on certain options. These options can follow once we
have a working example.
On this note, thanks to you and the others who have helped in solving
my modular DocBook problem.
Betty
