Re: [oXygen-user] Modifying the dita2htmlImpl.xsl file

20 Apr 2010

      Hi Steve,

If you only want to make the topic titles look smaller you can open the:
OXYGEN_INSTALL_DIR\frameworks\dita\DITA-OT\resource\commonltr.css
CSS file (which gets copied to the output directory when transforming to 
XHTML) and modify the font-sizes for the:
.topictitle1
.topictitle2
.topictitle3
......
selectors.

If you still want imbricated topic titles to start from <h2> instead of 
<h1> you can open the:
OXYGEN_INSTALL_DIR\frameworks\dita\DITA-OT\xsl\xslhtml\dita2htmlImpl.xsl
and search for "NESTED TOPIC TITLES". There is a template below the 
comment which generates the headings depending on the topic's level of 
imbrication.
In that template there is a line:
<xsl:otherwise><xsl:value-of select="count(ancestor::*[contains(@class,' 
topic/topic ')])"/></xsl:otherwise>
which you can replace with:
<xsl:otherwise><xsl:value-of select="count(ancestor::*[contains(@class,' 
topic/topic ')]) + 1"/></xsl:otherwise>*
*to make the topics start from <h2> instead of <h1>.*
*
Regards,
Radu

I realize I'm probably asking for someone to explain the equivalent of
string theory to a high school freshman, but I'm struggling to
understand how to modify the dita2htmlImpl.xsl file so that the
transformed files I get from Oxygen tag the<task>  and<concept>
entries in my<composite>  files are tagged as "H2" headings and not
"H3" headings.
Example of my composite topic file
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<!DOCTYPE dita PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DITA Composite//EN"
"http://docs.oasis-open.org/dita/v1.1/OS/dtd/ditabase.dtd">
<dita>
     <topic id="MyTopic">
         <title>My Composite Topic</title>
         <prolog>
             <metadata>
                 <othermeta content="en_US" name="language"/>
                 <othermeta content="US" name="country"/>
             </metadata>
         </prolog>
         <body>
             <p>This is the general introduction to this concept and task.</p>
         </body>
     </topic>
     <concept id="concept1" conref="../../shared/en-us/concept1.dita#concept1A">
         <title>Concept title</title>
      </concept>
     <task id="task1 conref="../../shared/en-us/taskt1.dita#task1A"">
         <title>Task title</title>
       </task>
</dita>
Assuming that this "works" in the transform, I get content where each
concept and task comes in tagged as "H1"  I need these to be tagged
"H2" instead.
I realize that I can use<section>  tags to mark sections as
subordinate, but the<composite>  type doesn't seem to support
<section>  tags where I need them. Conceptually it would be like this:
<section>
<title>Major Concept</title>
<concept id="concept1" conref="concept1.dita#concept">
<conbody/>
</concept>
</section>
<section>
<title>Major Task</title>
<task id="task1" conref="task1.dita#task">
<taskbody/>
</task>
</section>
but of course this doesn't work. Also, I would end up getting the
Title from the Section as well as the Task or Concept.
So, do I somehow munge the dita2htmlImpl.xsl file to somehow make
Tasks and Concepts "H2" entries, or can I somehow get the idea of a
subordinate Concept or Task into a Topic/Composite Topic DITA file?
