RE: DOCBOOK-APPS: Generating TOC with Saxon

[Bill Lawrence <bill dot lawrence at ansys dot com>]

To clarify things a bit:

We are using XSLT, the modular docbook stylesheets, and a very large,
multi-book set.  We are converting to HTML and HTML Help. We're looking to
replace XT as our processor, and have discovered that, while Xalan/Xerces
work well they are too slow when working with an 9,000 page XML instance.

In running tests with Saxon, the table of contents files generate but have
no contents entries.  This works fine however in XT/XP and Xalan/Xerces.

Does anyone have any light to shed on this?

Is this for docbook or website?
Assuming docbook and html and xslt !

<xsl:param name="generate.component.toc" select="1" doc:type='boolean'/>
<xsl:param name="generate.division.toc" select="1" doc:type='boolean'/>
<xsl:param name="generate.set.toc" select='1' doc:type='boolean'/>
defaults to true
<xsl:param name="generate.section.toc" select='0' doc:type='boolean'/>

So perhaps if you are only using sections, you won't get tocs?
The only other thing I can think of is that you haven't put
a <toc/> element in the source, to tell the stylesheets
where you want the toc?
