DOCBOOK-APPS: Re: Linking titlepage to top level chunk.

[Norman Walsh <ndw at nwalsh dot com>]

/ Eric Baudais <baudais@okstate.edu> was heard to say:
| I am writing a customization which will chunk the titlepage separately and 
| add a link from the top level chunk to the titlepage.  I am able to make the 
| titlepage separately with some editting of titlepage.xsl (soon to be migrated 
| to template/titlepage.xsl).  What I am stumped on is how to put a link from 
| the top level chunk to the titlepage.  I want this link to appear in the 
| navigation headers as the previous link.
| 
| Can anyone suggest a way to do this?

If, for example, you're dealing with books, and you want the bookinfo to be
on a separate page, you can update the calculation of $prev in chunk.xsl to
include "bookinfo". That'll get you a pointer to it. You'll need to tweak a
few things so that an xref to a bookinfo translates into the right href.

Hope that helps.
