RE: DOCBOOK-APPS: Re: Inclusion of random section in the TOC

[Jeff Beal <jeff dot beal at ansys dot com>]

I have done this.  We have a book that's a collection of dialog box help.
The users typically go to one of these pages when they click help in our
application, but we don't want the book to show up in any TOC's.  So, we put
role="widget" on the book and added the following template to remove it from
the TOC:

<xsl:template match="book[@role='widget']" mode="toc"/>

/ Adrian Ionita <silviu.ionita@probass.ro> was heard to say:
| It is possible to specify with an attribute (or something else) of the
| <section> element if that section is or isn't included in the TOC?

No.

| It's possible to make this without manual creation of TOC?

Maybe. I guess I'd suggest using role or one of the conditional attributes
on
the section and then customize the stylesheets to skip those sections (or
include them) in the ToC.
