Too many chapters with 0.6

pepak · 08-01-2009, 07:10 AM

For some reason I can't figure out the proper sequence of command-line parameters that would achieve my goals:

1) Only H2 and H3 tags are considered for chapters.
2) These tags must have class starting with either "part" or "chapter".
3) Nothing else is a chapter.
4) Page-breaks occur before any H2, but nowhere else.

I thought these parameters would do the trick:

Code:

--no-chapters-in-toc
--chapter="//*[re:test(name(), '^h[23]', 'i') and re:test(@id, '^(chapter|part)', 'i')]"
--chapter-mark=pagebreak
--page-breaks-before=//h2
--level1-toc=//h2
--level2-toc=//h3

It almost works, but goal #3 gives me trouble: If a book contains intra-document links (which I use for footnotes), they ALSO get added to the TOC. I thought that --no-chapters-in-toc would take care of that, but apparently that is not the case. What other option should I use then?

Change --level1-toc to //h:h2 and --level2-toc to //h:h3
Put --chapter-mark none
--page-break-before //h:h2

In 0.6 you have to prefix html tags with the h: namespace

Thanks.

I assume the h: prefix applies to my --chapter, too. Correct?

Unfortunately, it didn't help. I still keep getting links to footnotes in my TOC. And, I have just noticed, even H2 without chapter/part are included :-(

Apparently I needed to add:

Code:

--max-toc-links=0
--toc-threshold=0
