Introduction

This section describes how to produce a customization of the TEI stylesheets. It describes all the parameters which you can set, the templates which are designed to be changed, and the empty templates provided into which you can add your own code.

There are 13 areas for customization. In most cases there are parameters and templates which are specific to one of the three output methods (HTML, FO and LaTeX), and those which are common to all three.

Making HTML: example

You can simply refer to the specification html/tei.xsl directly with your XSL processor, or install it locally on your own server. For more flexibility, you may prefer to reference the specifications from an XSL wrapper of your own. The minimal specification would look like this: <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0"> <xsl:import href="html/tei.xsl"/> </xsl:stylesheet> You can customize the result by adding to this wrapper file. The normal result will be a single stream of HTML which you can save in a file. You can also configure it to produce multiple output files, one per top-level div or div1.

Standard page features

The default behaviour of the system is to construct each HTML page with per-page navigation bars top and bottom, and a standard set of navigation links underneath.

Variables Type Name Description Default department Name of department within institution [string] homeLabel Name of link to home page of application [string] Home homeURL Project Home [anyURI] http://www.tei-c.org/ homeWords Project [string] TEI institution Institution [string] A TEI Project parentURL Institution link [anyURI] http://www.tei-c.org/ parentWords Name of overall institution [string] Parent Institution searchURL Link to search application [anyURI] http://www.google.com xhtml alignNavigationPanel How to align the navigation panel at the bottom of the page [string] right xhtml bottomNavigationPanel Display navigation panel at bottom of pages [boolean] true xhtml feedbackURL Link for feedback [anyURI] mailto:feedback xhtml htmlTitlePrefix Fixed string to insert before normal page title in HTML meta <title> element [string] xhtml linkPanel Make a panel with next page/previous page links [boolean] true
Templates
Layout

There are three ways to provide a constant navigation aid. You can either make the whole page into a table, where the first column has a table of contents, or you can make an HTML frameset, or you can just have a table of links on the left or right

Hypertext links present special problems, as we have to choose whether they should start a new window, occupy all of the current window, or stay within the frame. These stylesheets implement the following rules: Any ref or ptr link stays within the frame Any link containing :// uses the whole browser window Any link starting . uses the whole browser window If the stylesheet sets no splitting of the document, any ref or ptr link uses the whole browser window If a ref or ptr link has a rend attribute value of noframe, the whole browser window is used If a ref or ptr link has a rend attribute value of new, a new browser window is started

Headings

Headings for sections can be customized in various ways.

Variables Type Name Description Default autoHead Construct a heading for <div> elements with no <head> [boolean] headingNumberSuffix Punctuation to insert after a section number [string] . numberSpacer Character to put after number of section header [string]
Templates (for common) How to make a heading for section if there is no <head>  
Numbering

Section headings, figures, tables and notes can be numbered automatically. We can set the numbering of front matter and back matter separately. If you prefer to supply your own numbering, using the n attribute, you can choose this over automatic numbering.

Normally, heading numbers are followed by . , but you can vary this. This would let you use eg fixed spaces.

Output

You can set a name for the output file(s); if you ask for multiple output files, this name will be used to create unique filenames for each section. By default, results will go to wherever your XSLT processor normally writes (usually standard output). If you opt to have files created, you can specify the name of the directory where the output is to be placed.

If you are making HTML, do you want a single output page, or a separate one for each section of the document? You can decide to have a different splitting policy for front and back matter.

Variables Type Name Description Default REQUEST The complete URL when the document is being delivered from a web server (normally set by Apache or Cocoon) [string] STDOUT Write to standard output channel [boolean] true xhtml ID An ID passed to the stylesheet to indicate which section to display [string] xhtml requestedID A wrapper around the ID, to allow for other ways of getting it [string] xhtml URLPREFIX A path fragment to put before all internal URLs [string] xhtml outputName The name of the output file [string] xhtml outputDir Directory in which to place generated files [string] xhtml outputEncoding Encoding of output file(s) [string] utf-8 xhtml outputMethod Output method for output file(s) [string] html xhtml outputSuffix Suffix of output file(s) [string] .html xhtml doctypePublic Public Doctype of output file(s) [string] -//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN xhtml doctypeSystem System Doctype of output file(s) [string] http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd xhtml pageLayout The style of HTML (Simple, CSS or Table) which creates the layout for generated pages.

Templates
Table of contents generation

You probably want tables of contents built for your document, using the div structure. However, if you have used a divGen type="toc" explicitly, that will also create a table of contents, so you can suppress the automatic one. When a table of contents is created, you choose how many levels of headings it will show. You can choose whether or not the front and backmatter appear in the table of contents.

Variables Type Name Description Default xhtml autoToc Make an automatic table of contents [boolean] true xhtml class_subtoc CSS class for second-level TOC entries [string] subtoc xhtml subTocDepth Depth at which to stop doing a recursive table of contents.
