Dennis, I wasn't able to get anywhere with that URL - it seems to get mangled when used.
For those keeping score at home, here's where I'm at trying to convert a Docbook xml file to HTML:
Previously:
1) mucked with catalog files until emacs agreed to parse xml DTDs in psgml mode
2) tried to use openjade to convert xml to html
Most Recently:
1) As per advice, downloaded docbook-xsl. Used this command:
xsltproc --catalogs --nonet --verbose /usr/share/sgml/docbook-xsl-1.45/html/docbook.xsl index.xml
(gazillions of lines like
xsltParseStylesheetTemplate: mode
set.titlepage.recto.auto.mode
xsltCompilePattern : parsing 'legalnotice'
xsltCompilePattern : parsed legalnotice, default priority 0.000000
omitted)
parsed 12 templates

When I removed the references to the child documents, I got an HTML output. So then I put the references back in and removed the nbsp tag, and got valid output, a non-quite-clean-looking HTML document in which all three xml documents were present in sequence. *shrug* That's at least enough to start working on documentation. I'll retrace my steps and write up a mini-howto, I guess.
