I have been fighting with trying to get your sample built on my system. The end point for me seems to be that in order to use your faq.dsl I need docbook DTD 4.2. RedHat 7.2 has Docbook 3.0 through 4.1 but 4.1 just does not cut it.
jade:../faq.dsl:50:24:E: reference to undefined variable "$generate-article-lot-list$"
The sgml tools site has only 3.0/2
So I feel very THICK and ned some enlightenment on what direction to take either.
- It seems pointless to rely on something (docBook 4.2 DTD) that
is difficult to get, so no one will use it so, no one will maintain the FAQ.
Silly me, not thinking about others. It runs fine with docbook 3.1 (modify the doctype at top of wine-faq.sgml) if you remove the articleinfo pair (but you can keep the title).
- I am THICK and I it will be quickly apparent what I should do
once I have more informatioin.
You're NOT thick! It's just that I do things here (on my machine), and I don't always check if it would work on other machines.

When I made the suggested changes I still get the same error...
[tony@tony documentation]$ db2html -d ../faq.dsl wine-faq.sgml output is wine-faq Using catalogs: /etc/sgml/sgml-docbook-3.1.cat Using stylesheet: ../faq.dsl Working on: /usr/local/src/wine/documentation/wine-faq.sgml jade:../faq.dsl:50:24:E: reference to undefined variable "$generate-article-lot-list$"
Ok, it's the definition of the article element which causes problems.
What is your dsssl-stylesheets version? You can locate db31.dsl and look in the parents directory name.
dsssl-stylesheets-1.64
I needed to copy some definitions (bad thing to do, as your experiencing shows) to precisely control the HTML layout.
Try with the enclosed dsl file (warning: endlines are probably MS), and compare the differences (if it works ;-)). Then tell me which differences you absolutely need, or want, and I'll try to get them in a portable way.

I had to modify the faq-plain.dsl a little to get output

With those changes I get output (but not the prety stuff ) <grin>
