Blogging an issue with the 1609 Sonnet
Posted by mholmes on 08 Apr 2009 in Activity log
PG hit a markup issue: the 1609 Sonnet document has two distinct works in it, and the second of them has as elaborate a title page as the first, occurring in the middle of the document. However, the <titlePage>
tag only seems to be able to appear in a <front>
tag, which cannot appear after a <body>
. I think the obvious solution is shown here, and looks like this:
<text> <front/> <group> <text> <front/> <body/> <back/> </text> <text/> </group> </text>
The frontispiece/title page material that applies to the whole document comes first, in the root text, and then the two component documents are enclosed in a <group>
tag, each being a full <text>
element.
