Re: Help needed to use ENTITY in docbook5 (convert from docbook4)

Hi Thomas,

Thank you for your explanation. Now I have changed my document but now I have the 
next problem.

In the main document I have included a sub document with xi:include and I don't have an 
idea how to change the header of the included document.
At the moment it looks like:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

    <!DOCTYPE chapter [
	    	    <!ENTITY % darktable_ent SYSTEM "darktable.ent">
		    %darktable_ent;
    ]>

    <chapter 
        version="5.0"
        xmlns="http://docbook.org/ns/docbook" 
        xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude" 
        xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" 
        xml:lang="en"
        status="final"
        xml:id="overview_chapter">

     <chapterinfo>
       <keywordset>
           <keyword>overview</keyword>
          <keyword>application</keyword>
       </keywordset>
      </chapterinfo>

     <title>Overview</title>
     ....

*The output of *

/xsltproc --xinclude --output Test.html /docbook-xsl-1.79.2/xhtml/docbook.xsl source.xml/

*is like this:*

/source.xml:31: parser error : Entity 'eacute' not defined 
overview/overview.xml:273: parser error : Entity 'nbsp' not defined 


*Whats wrong with my Entity?*/

*How do I define the chapter document in a proper way?*

Thanks in davance
Pierre
