Re: [docbook-apps] Indexing.

Hi Dave and Docbook-apps Company:

In working with a legacy text, 1875, and it's index I entered five secondary entries, expecting an error, using the following:

<index><title>Index</title>

<indexentry><primaryie>Admission to Seats in Synod</primaryie>

<secondaryie>Ven. Archdeacon McMurray</secondaryie>

<secondaryie>Rev. Dr. Sullivan</secondaryie>

<secondaryie>Rev. Dr. Stocking</secondaryie>

<secondaryie>Wm. J. Harris</secondaryie>

<secondaryie>W. B. Curran</secondaryie></indexentry>

</index>

And to my surprise and delight this validated and produced the desired entry.

All I have to say is that the xslt stylesheets for DocBook are awesome!

If this should not work - don't change anything.

Grateful - Paul

I'm about to start indexing a db5 book.

Reading up on the subject(Nancy C. Mulvany) and wondered if anyone has

been there and done that, got the tee-shirt and found the pitfalls in docbook? Any advice from those with lots of experience of using

db indexes please?
