Summary: HTML: docbook.xsl overwrites indent and doctype

Initial Comment:
At the top of xhtml/docbook.xsl and html/docbook.xsl
you can find:

<xsl:output method="xml" encoding="UTF-8" indent="no"
doctype-public="-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
doctype-system="http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"/>

and

<xsl:output method="html"
            encoding="ISO-8859-1"
            indent="no"/>

which seems to overwrite the indent and doctype-*
settings of the user. IMHO they should be removed
there, so the user decides and chunker.* takes precedence.

Regards, Daniel

Daniel,

To override the indent and doctype-* defaults, include an 
<xsl:output> element in your stylesheet customization 
layer. For example, see:
