DOCBOOK-APPS: Customizing DocBook to Produce a real URL Tree

[Shlomi Fish <shlomif at vipe dot technion dot ac dot il>]

Hi!

I'm not happily using the db2* tools to convert DocBook/XML into various
formats. However, I noticed that jade put all the HTML file into one
directory and calls them with obscure names such as:

book1.html
c16.html
x208.html

etc. Now what I want is that it will be real URL Tree:

     (Root)
[id1]
[id1]/[id2]
[id1]/[id2]/[id3]
[id4]

etc. As is the case with my Quad-Pres generated lectures:

http://vipe.technion.ac.il/~shlomif/lecture/Freecell-Solver/slides/
http://vipe.technion.ac.il/~shlomif/lecture/Autotools/
http://vipe.technion.ac.il/~shlomif/lecture/Gimp/1/slides/

[id*] are the IDs I assigned to the chapters and sections.

My question: how can I customize the DSSSL (or XSL while we're at it)
stylesheets to produce such a tree? (and still maintain prev-next-up
link consistency and link to the same CSS stylesheet)

Regards,

	Shlomi Fish
