Hmm...I had thought of writing a set of scripts to clean up the HTML, then
|
||
identify the places where I would substitute the appropriate HTML tags for
|
||
SGML tags, and iteratively move the docset closer and closer to DocBook. I
|
||
had found an html2sgml perl script that'll get me from HTML -> LinuxDoc
|
||
(though it needs some work).
|
||
I figured if I could get it to that point, and then translate it from
|
||
LinuxDoc -> DocBook, that would solve 80% of it -- the rest will require
|
||
manual intervention.
|
||
|
||
I'm going to look into your suggestion of massaging it into XML and
|
||
applying a stylesheet. I'm new to SGML/XML, so I'm still at the bottom third
|
||
of my learning curve, but there's enough info on the net and in the O'Reilly
|
||
book to get me going.
|
||
|
||
thanks,
|
||
|
||
Scott

The ld2db backend of SGMLtools drives a DSSSL stylesheet that converts
|
||
Linuxdoc to Docbook.

|

I'd massage the HTML into something XML compliant (sgmlnorm might do the
|
||
job),
|
||
and then apply an XSL transformation stylesheet.
