Is it possible to customize HTML output in a similar fashion to PDF output? For example, I'd like stepresult to appear on a new line. Do I have to edit the...
I'm about to do some testing on this on my own, but I was wondering if I can use multiple ditaval files in a build. For example, say I want one ditaval file...
Hi Patrick - You can (and should) put these changes in an override xsl file. I say should, because having the overrides handled outside base OTK files...
HI, I have Oxygen Author with DITA OT 1.4.2. I specified a width for my png graphics to get them to look consistent in the PDF2 document. But evry graphic I...
Are you sure that the width you specified will fit within the page margins? In my experience with the PDF2 plug-in, images that are too big to render on the...

Hi folks, I want to define metadata for a map without changing the metadata of the individual topics. <map id="topicmeta-question"> <topicmeta> <category>Data...
Hi, Did anyone out there complain that ditaval files are no valid DITA topics? Of course, there is a ditaval.dtd since DITA 1.1 and any XML editor can open and...
... The original trial version I had expired and I uninstalled that but I installed it again on a different computer yesterday so I could look at the source...
... It still is, as far as I know. I wonder if enabling XInclude preprocessing on ditaval files would be sufficient. That might be the simplest plan of...
... Yes, I think that is what happens. Actually, I think that column 2 applies to the map topicmeta too, so if the map had another topicref that didn't...
... I think that someone from IBM said that it was historical. But I agree; ditaval files should have been DITA. ... My advice: see if it works as a map...
I tried it with a phrase element in the shortdesc, and put a conreffed phrase in the list element, and it worked fine. The other example approaches, I'm not...

... Specializations of base= and props= must be global in order to be fully conforming specializations. ... Your undestanding is correct: there is no way to...
Personally, I would lean towards using a choicetable with headings like, Limb and Method. In the left column would be Arm and Leg and in the right column would...
Hi Patrick and Robert, I'm not sure I understand the question here but wouldn't it make sense to just enclose the content of stepresult in a p element? This...

Hi Josh, There is no need to build your own command line for ANT. You can use Oxygen as a custom DITA OT ANT runner. Just open a DITA Map, choose any type of...
Whether probably to store files DITA in Subversion and to start XSLT on the local computer? Whether it is convenient? Whether it is possible to choose thus the...
... Yes, Subversion is an excellent choice for management of any XML content, DITA included, as compared to CVS, in particular, because Subversion is fully...
We've found DITA and Subversion to be a very handy combination. Each author will need to check out the desired DITA files/directories into a local work area....
... It's worth noting one feature of Subversion that frequently comes as a (rude) surprise to new users who: * come to SVN from the "document" world (rather...
As you may know from my other topic I'm trying to adapt a single html output build to Oxygen. I've gotten fairly far and have the buildfile and xsl file I need...
I'm nearly done with my eclipse help implementation, but I just realized I'm not getting any links from the reltables in my ditamaps. I didn't see any property...
Hi: To support a legacy help presentation (don't ask), I am experimenting with chunking on a map reference to consolidate topics into a "chapter" : <map...
... Subversion (SVN) is definitly the better choice than CVS. You get better possibilities to access the repository and there are quite good client tools that...
