Adding xi:fallback elements to the source would work for that:

> Dear list,

> I like to ask you for support in the following case:
>
> We have a DB "mother" document, which contains lots of
> xinclude references to other files. Many of these referenced
> files are generated by scripts (containing tables with test
> results). These generated files are written in valid DocBook 4.5 .
>
> But sometimes there is no data to be published in those
> files. So there is no file and the specific folder is empty,
> where the xinclude reference points to. In this case, when we
> publish the "mother" file as HTML or FO/PDF, there is
> naturally an error message in red letters saying
> "<xi:include></xi:include>".
>
> How can I adjust my customization, so the HTML and FO/PDF
> output says e.g. "Currently there is no data available" in
> normal font style instead of the original error message?
>
> Thanks a lot for your support. I could not find any hint that
> helped me out of this problem.
