TEMPLATE FORMAT

The template file is an XSLT which needs to process the following input XML document:

  <Page>
    <CollectionTitle>Collection Title</CollectionTitle>
    <PageTitle>Page Title</PageTitle>
    <Summary>Page Summary</Summary>
    <Signature>Type Declaration</Signature>
    <Remarks>Type Remarks</Remarks>
    <Members>Type Members</Members>
    <Copyright>Documentation Copyright</Copyright>
  </Page>

The generated HTML also makes use of several CSS classes. You can either use the create-default-style named template found within the --default-template output to generate these classes, or explicitly define the following CSS classes:

HTML LINKS

All members within the HTML file have an id attribute to permit linking to a specific member. The value of the id attribute is the String ID of the specified member.
