RE: [xep-support] How can I create an index

Hi,

You can create index using the following code. For generating the index you
need two xsl-fo tags.

1. fo:basic-link
2 fo:page-number-citation

fo:basic-link should be present in the page which you want to display in the
index. Id attribute of fo:basic-link tag should be unique across the
document.

fo:page-number-citation searches for the matching id and displays the
pagenumber in the index.

<fo:block>
        <fo:basic-link internal-destination="" id="{Some Unique ID for some
section or subsection of the document}" />
</fo:block>

In the Index if you want to display the page number of Section 1 then you
need to put section1 or some unique id in the fo:basic-link.

<fo:block>
        <fo:basic-link internal-destination="" id="Section1" />
</fo:block>

In the table of contents template refer to this id as follow

<fo:block text-align="right" font-family="Times Roman" font-size="10pt">
        <fo:page-number-citation ref-id="Section1" />
</fo:block>

Thanks,
Anshul Katoch

Mark each point with some xml,
In a separate mode,
xsl-for-each select = index marks
  create the link, insert the content, insert the page reference.

....Or ask on the Mulberrytech xslt list.
