DOCBOOK: Re: revhistory not rendered, customization

[Norman Walsh <ndw@nwalsh.com>]

/ Brian Craft <bcboy@thecraftstudio.com> was heard to say:
| Hi all -- I'm using a standard RedHat 7.1 box (openjade, modular style sheets,
| blah, blah) to format some docbook sgml. The <revhistory> info for an
| article is not being rendered. Anyone know why this would be?

The list of metadata elements that should be rendered on a titlepage
is highly personal. If you make a customization stylesheet and add

	(normalize "revhistory")

To the appropriate:

(define (<<<element you want to use>>>-titlepage-recto-elements)
  (list (normalize "title")
	(normalize "subtitle")
	(normalize "graphic")
	(normalize "mediaobject")
	(normalize "corpauthor")
	(normalize "authorgroup")
	(normalize "author")
	(normalize "editor")
	(normalize "copyright")
	(normalize "legalnotice")))

list, then it'll be rendered.

                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm
