Empty glossary with glossary.collection parameter


Bonjour,

Could someone be kind and help me with creating an automagical glossary in a 
book, using entries in a global glossary "database"?

I am using docbook-xsl-1.60.1 and xsltproc.

I (think I) have been following the recommended steps (Bob's and Norm's). 
Obviously I missed something, since the glossary in my test book stays 
desesperately clean and empty (all I get is the "Glossary" title).
Also, the links to the glossterms in my book are not active as I expect they 
should be if there the glossary section had been correctly created!

However, I get no warnings while running xsltproc to produce the HTML output. 

I have:

1/ a common glossary, with
...
<glossentry id="entry1">
<glossterm>Term One</glossterm>
<glossdef><para>
Definition for term one.
</para></glossdef>
</glossentry>
...

2/ <xsl:param name="glossary.collection" select="<path_to_common_glossary>"/>
in my html customization stylesheet.

3/ a placeholder <glossary role="auto"> element in my book, with one dummy 
glossentry.

4/ glossterms in my book
...
<para>
The first term of the Glossary is <glossterm>Term One</glossterm>.
</para> 
...

That's all I have ;)

Thank you,

Tilly
