Ensuring two digits in EXSLT produced time fields

[Paul Moloney]

To automatically produce pubdates, I've followed the advice on this page http://www.dpawson.co.uk/docbook/styling/custom.html#d2212e1704.

In the comments, it mentions "Add number formatting to ensure two digits in time fields." - does anyone know how to do that? At the moment we do indeed get a problem that if a time is, say, 14:07, it comes out as "14:7".

Thanks,

P.

[Bob Stayton]

Actually, the stylesheets have a processing instruction named dbtimestamp
that does that.  The "M" format letter automatically inserts the leading
zero if the minute number is less than 10.  See:

On that note, is there any way to make the "day of the month" value drop
the leading '0'?

I use <?dbtimestamp format='B d, Y'?> and I get something like 'March
07, 2007' which seems a bit crude. I would like to see 'March 7, 2007'

Looking at the code again, it looks like this should work:

<?dbtimestamp format="B d, Y"  padding="0"?>

The padding is 1 by default.  The padding value applies to hour and minute
as well as date, so it would be best to use separate dbtimestamp PIs if you
need both date and time and want different padding behavior.

Hello List. I have "<releaseinfo>RELEASE INFO</releaseinfo>" under "book\bookinfo" but it's not showing up in PDF. Am I doing something wrong?

   Just to clarify: you want the releaseinfo elements to show up on
the page just after the the very first page of the document, right?
(ie book.titlepage.verso from the
docbook5-xsl-1.72.0/titlepage.templates.xsl file)

   Assuming that's the case, I am unable to replicate your problem
using the Docbook5 stylesheets wih Windows, xsltproc (xsltproc was
compiled against libxml 20627, libxslt 10119 and libexslt 813) and fop
0.93.   If you have a different setup, then someone who has that setup
might be able to help you.

  If you want the releaseinfo element to show up somewhere else (eg
the front cover or somewhere in the body text), that's a very
different matter. :)

   Okay, then two follow-up questions:

  1. Did you want the information on the page after the front cover?

  2. When you try copying and pasting the files into your system and
create a PDF, do you actually see the release info show up?

1. Yes i want it on the second page, just like copyright, pubdate, legalnotice, etc.
2. Did you mean create against Docbook 5.0 and XSK 1.72.0? (If yes, my current environment is 4.4 with 1.69.2. I am not ready to change to 5.0 1.72.0 unless I have to.) It works ok in HTML (CHM) version. Just not in PDF.

  Okay, good.  That should be pretty easy, then. :)

    Oh, sorry, I meant using your current environment.  If you copy
the files to your computer and then use your current setup, hopefully
it should generate

    * blank titlepage
    * page with the words RELEASE INFO at the top
    * blank page
    * table of contents
    * chapter heading and sample text

   If this simple test doesn't generate something like the above, then
something really basic is unhappy with the world and we'll need to go
deeper.  This might be something with the stylesheets, for example.
(I'm told that it can be quite painful to switch stylesheet versions,
but I've never done that firsthand.  We might want to avoid that for
the moment. :)  If you've got things mostly working the way you like,
it might be easier to get your current environment to work.

   If the simple test does generate something with the release info,
then you'll have to add content until you get to the point where
things stop working and figure things out from there.  :)
