If you're interested in this feature, please download 1.50.1-EXP and
give it a try. I believe that I've fixed the code so that it will
properly handle references across chunks in different directories.
I also don't think I've broken anything :-)
The following restrictions apply:
1. Directory levels are cumulative. Given:
<book>
<?book filename="b.html"?>
<chapter>
<?dbhtml dir="chap1" filename="c.html"?>
<section>
<?dbhtml dir="sect1" filename="s.html"?>
...
b.html will go in the current directory
c.html will go in chap1/
s.html will go in chap1/sect1/
2. You must not use absolute path names.
3. You must not use "../" in any path name.
Be seeing you,
norm
P.S. Please ignore 1.50.1-EXP unless you're interested in testing this
new functionality. That's the only reason its there.
