- List-id: <docbook.lists.oasis-open.org>
Does anybody know how to refere from a book document
(DOCTYPE book)to terms defined in a glossary document
(DOCTYPE glossary)?
Probabli a link is required, but how?
Here's some chunks of my documents:
1. The source document (tech_0000_softreqs.docbook):
<!DOCTYPE book PUBLIC "-//QUXO//DTD DocBook V1.0//EN" [
<!ENTITY % English "INCLUDE">
<!ENTITY % projdata.en SYSTEM "TECHDOC//ENTITIES Project Data
V1.0//EN">
%projdata.en;
]>
<book id="&proj.name;-softreqs" lang="&language;">
<bookinfo>
<title>&proj.name;</title>
<subtitle>Software Requirements</subtitle>

... The goal of this project is to develop the Regie utility,
a web-based application allowing registrations to be imported
from an XML file into the
<glossterm linkend="broadsphere">BroadSphere</glossterm>
database, or, viceversa, to be exported from the BroadSphere
database into an XML file.

Specify in which order terms are defined. They can be defined in any
order, but generally alphabetic order provides the greatest
accessibility.
