Re: [docbook] nvdl and xinclude question

Hi,

You need to put your bibliography element into the 
DocBook namespace.  When it is inlined, the namespace is inherited from the 
book element, but not when it is xincluded.

Subject: [docbook] nvdl and xinclude 
  question

  

Hi,
  
I'm xincluding a bibliography in my chapter. Validation (nvdl) gives me 
  an error that a bibliography is not allowed. But when I physically replace the 
  xinclude with the actual included file, validation passes.  Here are the 
  details:

mybook_mychapter.xml has this structure:
<chapter 
  xmlns="http://docbook.org/ns/docbook"
                  xmlns:xl="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"
                  xml:id="mybook.mychapter"
                  remap="Chapter" 
  version="5.0">
 <info><title>my 
  chapter</title></info>
 <section xml:id="a0000000002" 
  remap="Headi">
   <para> lots of stuff in 
  here</para>
</section>
 <xi:include xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude" 
  href="mybook_mychapter_bib.xml"/>
</chapter>

I give this 
  command:
java 
  -Dorg.apache.xerces.xni.parser.XMLParserConfiguration=org.apache.xerces.parsers.XIncludeParserConfiguration 
  -jar onvdl.jar  docbook.nvdl mybook_mychapter.xml

and get this 
  response:
error: element "bibliography" not allowed in this 
  context

The contents of mybook_mychapter_bib.xml 
  is:
<bibliography>
  <title>References</title>
  <bibliomixed 
  xml:id="kemp_o_57"/>
  <bibliomixed 
  xml:id="falc_d_96"/>
  <bibliomixed 
  xml:id="crow_j_70"/>
</bibliography>

When I replace the 
  xinclude with the actual lines from the mybook_mychapter_bib.xml, the 
  validation passes.

any ideas on what I'm doing 
  wrong?
thanks,
