The various XML technologies incorporated into ZimWeb may require references from one source to another (e.g. one XSLT stylesheet referencing another, or a reference to an external image in XSL-FO).
The following explains precisely how references to other sources (URIs) are interpreted in different circumstances.
URIs in XML generated by the Zim database agent
If there is a relative URI in the XML generated by the Zim database agent – e.g. a reference to a DTD (document type definition) – then this is interpreted as relative to a file zii.xml
(which does not have to exist) in the base path of the ZimWeb application.
(e.g. If you have installed ZimWeb in the manner described in the installation instructions then specifying that a DTD is at path dtd/mydtd.dtd
will refer to the file [TOMCAT_ROOT]/ZII/dtd/mydtd.dtd
.)
URIs in XSLT stylesheets
If there is a relative URI in an XSLT stylesheet – (e.g. a reference to another stylesheet or document) – then this is interpreted as relative to that stylesheet. (e.g. If you have a stylesheet[TOMCAT_ROOT]/ZII/styles/cool.xsl
that imports or includes a stylesheet library/valueformat.xsl
then that will refer to the file [TOMCAT_ROOT]/ZII/styles/library/valueformat.xsl
.
URIs in XSL-FO
If there is a relative URI in XSL-FO – (e.g. a reference to an image in an external file) – then this is interpreted as relative to a file zii.xml
(which does not have to exist) in the base path of the ZII application.
e.g. If you have installed ZimWeb in the manner described in the installation instructions then specifying a reference to an image at path images/fop.jpg
will refer to the file [TOMCAT_ROOT]/ZII/images/fop.jpg
.
