Re: [docbook-apps] Parameters in Docbook Article
Hi,

yes that looks completely reasonable, you'd just need to decide what 
markup in the source XML would be used to hold the client name, for 
example <phrase role="xslparam" vendor="output.client"/> (completely 
wild guess).

and then define in your custom XSL the function that will match the 
above element and replace it with the content of the $output.client 
parameter....

Hope that helps,

Camille.
