Draft watermark not working. No specific customization.

[spr]

Hi,

I have a very basic customization - only to set the draft.mode to "yes"  (see attached).

Still I don't get watermark. I did see problems reported earlier on the subject, but most related to accessing the image. I don;t see any such error while creating PDF/ bare-FO output.

Here is output from my command-line:
  ::

(xsl:param's are funny) I think you've set the draft.mode to the value
of the XPath yes rather than the string value yes. Try either

<xsl:param name="draft.mode" select="'yes'"/>

or

<xsl:param name="draft.mode">yes</xsl:param>

Thanks Keith,

Only this works:
<xsl:param name="draft.mode">yes</xsl:param>

But in my full customization projects, i have many params set as:
  <xsl:param
    name   = "draft.mode"
    select  = "yes" />

Infact, all stylesheets are formatted this way.
Since, i am a 'C' programmer, this formatting helps me in easy understanding & modification.

I am still curious why only this param (of the ones i have used) behaves differently.

That is the format documented at
http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/doc/html/draft.mode.html

Hi,

>    name   = "draft.mode"
>    select  = "yes" />

This style will work with the proper syntax in the select expression.  A
bare word in a select expression is taken as an element name.  Since there
is no <yes> element in that context, the expression returns nothing and the
parameter is not set.  The stylesheet expects a string for that parameter,
which is why Keith suggested adding the single quotes inside the double
quotes, which indicates that the value is a string:
  <xsl:param
    name   = "draft.mode"
    select  = "'yes'" />

But such combined quotes are not always clear in many fonts.  Forgetting the
quotes on string values is one of the most common errors in XSLT, which is
why the syntax <xsl:param name="draft.mode">yes</xsl:param> is often
preferred (but not required).

Almost all of the "boolean" parameters in the XSLT stylesheets use "0"
and "1" for false and true, respectively. As bob explained later in
the thread, select="yes" matches <yes> elements in no namespace and,
in DocBook at least, there aren't any.

How $draft.mode slipped through expecting the values 'no' or 'yes' is
beyond me. Bleh. Probably ought to fix that.

Hi Norm,
No fix is needed, as draft.mode is not a boolean parameter.  It has three
possible text values (yes, no, maybe), and has since at least 2002.  The
param is correctly documented in:

http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/doc/fo/draft.mode.html
