Introduction

Using modern CSS capabilities we can change in a great degree the way HTML pages will be rendered. A stylesheet can be developed that takes the HTML generated by Boostbook and shows it as Quickbook source. This will allow to easily translate Boostbook docs to Quickbook, and when the HTML to docbook project find a good solution, we will have achieve a path from common HTML docs to quickbook sources that is very appealing.

Status

The stylesheet is fully functional, you can check it with the on-line Boost.DocTest document. In Firefox 2, go to "View" --> "Page Style" --> "Quickbook Source".

Common HTML

Not Docbook based Html translations can be made it in two ways:

  • Use a version of this CSS that lets as see HTML as Quickbook. You can see the results in a Boost.Bind page.
    To use it you must add a CSS link in the header of your HTML:

    <link rel="stylesheet" href="{BOOST_ROOT}/doc/style/html/conversion/html_to_quickbook.css" type="text/css" />

    The results are not so good as before, no navigation support, no admonitions rendering...

Resources

Go here for an up to date on-line version:

Sources are currently stored in the main boost docs project trunk but will be moved to the subprojects repository soon.

In the boost root the stylesheets are placed at:

doc/style/html/conversion
