Is there a good XSL stylesheet for rendering client side DocBook?

I want the DocBook documents in my SVN repository to look good if someone looks at them in a web browser. I started writing a CSS stylesheet, but I think that it will have significant limitations, especially regarding hyperlinks.

The DocBook website has a large number of DocBook XSL style sheets, but they are not suitable for rendering the browser. I do not want to create static documents and put them in SVN. I want them to be mostly accessible to other developers without any problems.

I could write my own XSL stylesheet, suitable for the browser, to convert DocBook to HTML, but it looks like someone else should do it. I just don’t know where to find him.

You are right, the DocBook XSL style sheets are very heavy and not suitable for working in a browser. The DocBook Wiki lists some CSS style sheets , maybe one of these might work for you?

The only thing I have is the one that the XMLMind XML Editor apparently uses to represent DocBook documents.

I don't like the question that asks: "Can your technology make X?" It involves a lot of product knowledge (plus, usually the answer is yes, but this does not answer the real question). It’s always better when I ask, “What are you trying to achieve,” so I can tell you if any technology is suitable (or I can point you to some other part that is much better, or the best way to do this) .
