[sword-devel] XSLT for OpenOffice export to OSIS Genbook

[Greg Hellings]

Daniel,

This is a very cumbersomely written XSL - I don't know why it doesn't
use the <xsl:element> tags and such for the creation of new elements
in the output.  However, your problem is specified below.

This line above here is the culprit - as you see, it is told to output
the value-of the string literal ***.  You need to replace this with
the XPath expression to the location that "Chapter 1" (for example) is
being pulled from.  A few lines down that is being pulled in by a call
to <xsl:apply-templates> but here you can just substitute the XPath to
where the text is provided in the original XML document.
