Re: laquo & raquo


[ Let's move this over to docbook-apps, please ]

/ Ismael Olea <olea@hispafuentes.com> was heard to say:
| (define %gentext-es-start-quote% (dingbat "laquo"))
| (define %gentext-es-end-quote% (dingbat "raquo"))
| 
| I invoke jade with the next answer:
| 
| $ jade -t sgml -ihtml -d ../../Utils/hispafuentes.dsl\#html
| ../guia-instalacion.sgml
| jade:/usr/lib/sgml/stylesheets/nwalsh-modular/html/dbhtml.dsl:259:18:I:
| debug ""No dingbat defined for: raquo""
| jade:/usr/lib/sgml/stylesheets/nwalsh-modular/html/dbhtml.dsl:259:18:I:
| debug ""No dingbat defined for: laquo""

You have to extend the definition of (dingbat) to include what you
actually want output for laquo and raquo.

| and for <quote>root</quote> I obtain:
| <SPAN CLASS="QUOTE">*root*</SPAN>	

Same problem.

| 	BTW, I observated some strange behavior of some entities like &trade;
| and &hellip; in html output. My browser is Netscape 4.72. I don't make
| concluyent tests. I'll do it if I get some time.

Jade tends to output these characters as entity references and Netscape
doesn't understand them.The only solution is to provide your own 
definitions to make them something else:

  <!ENTITY trade "TM">

                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm
