Re: DOCBOOK: HTML ID problem

/ Todd Babinski <todd.babinski@dynetics.com> was heard to say:
| However, the link does not always work.  For the ids that are on the
| chapters or section tags, this is working fine, as in the HTML output,
| DocBook
| has placed <A NAME="..."> at the appropriate locations.  for the above
| example, I have the following markup in my content:
|         <command id="HMADDMENUHELP"> ...
| 
| I would have expected to get something like the following in the HTML
| output:
|         <A NAME="HMADDMENUHELP"> ... </A>
| 
| but I am not getting the anchor put in place.  As a result, any xrefed
| link for that command is not going to the appropriate location in the
| file 

The problem is that there's no general way to output an anchor for
every element that has an ID. If you send me a list of the elements
that you want to link to, I'll add them.

                                        Be seeing you,
