DITA-OT1.5 M15 (Feature Request ID: 2698921)
Thanks to Robert Anderson (Feature Request ID: 2698921) you can now add attributes to the body tag in HTML output.
I wanted to use the http://code.google.com/p/google-code-prettify/ code highlighter and was able to get the script calls in using args.hdf/hdr, and use outputclass=prettyprint into the codeblock tag. The last thing was to modify the body tag to run the script when the page loaded. I modified the XSL to make it conditional, so it didn't modify the tag on pages that didn't actually need the script:
ToC in PDF with Arbortext editor
Anyone out there who can tell me how to a ToC in my PDF output?
I have a map that incudes some preface stuff and then I'd like a ToC before the actual content.
I assume I will need to include an element of some sort, but I can't figure out which one.
