I want to use a custom CSS file with webhelp output. I'm using Oxygen. I set the html.stylesheet parameter and pointed it to a custom CSS file.

In my output, however, the CSS is not linked. I only see one for css in the output, which is for tocWDiv.css.

Does the html.stylesheet parameter not work the way I'm expecting it to with webhelp?

If you have a custom xsl file, you can add a webhelp.head.content template for this purpose. For example:


<xsl:template name="user.webhelp.head.content">

</xsl:template>

This template adds your content at the end of the html element,
in this case a link to your CSS file:

...



Since it comes after the stock links, it overrides their default CSS rules.

Hi David,
All the usual params are supported in the xslts BUT the sample
Makefile and build.xml don't pass in every supported param. Looking
at it, I see that it supports only the profiling params out of the box.

So if you're using the supplied build.xml or Makefile as a starting point
you'll need to adapt it so that it also passes in the params you set.

If that's the case, look for the following lines in the build file and
add html.stylesheet following the pattern you see for the profiling
params.

Regards,
David

Sample Makefile:

chunk:
xsltproc --xinclude --output xincluded-profiled.xml \
--stringparam profile.arch ${PROFILE.ARCH} \
--stringparam profile.audience ${PROFILE.AUDIENCE} \
--stringparam profile.condition ${PROFILE.CONDITION} \
--stringparam profile.conformance ${PROFILE.CONFORMANCE} \
--stringparam profile.lang ${PROFILE.LANG} \
--stringparam profile.os ${PROFILE.OS} \
--stringparam profile.revision ${PROFILE.REVISION} \
--stringparam profile.revisionflag ${PROFILE.REVISIONFLAG} \
--stringparam profile.role ${PROFILE.ROLE} \
--stringparam profile.security ${PROFILE.SECURITY} \
--stringparam profile.status ${PROFILE.STATUS} \
--stringparam profile.userlevel ${PROFILE.USERLEVEL} \
--stringparam profile.vendor ${PROFILE.VENDOR} \
--stringparam profile.wordsize ${PROFILE.WORDSIZE} \
--stringparam profile.attribute ${PROFILE.ATTRIBUTE} \
--stringparam profile.value ${PROFILE.VALUE} \
../profiling/profile.xsl \
${INPUT_XML}

Sample build.xml:

<xslt
in="${input-xml}"
out="${xincluded-profiled.xml}"
style="${ant.file.dir}/../profiling/profile.xsl"
classpath="${xercesImpl.jar}">
<sysproperty key="org.apache.xerces.xni.parser.XMLParserConfiguration"
value="org.apache.xerces.parsers.XIncludeParserConfiguration"/>
