<para>This template takes a list of media objects (usually the

the "right" object. It returns the position of that object
to be used by the calling template.</para>



<para>If the parameter <parameter>use.role.for.mediaobject</parameter>
is nonzero, then it first checks for an object with
a role attribute of the appropriate value.  It takes the first
of those.  Otherwise, it takes the first acceptable object
through a recursive pass through the list.</para>



<para>This template relies on a template named "is.acceptable.mediaobject"
to determine if a given object is an acceptable graphic. The semantics
of media objects is that the first acceptable graphic should be used.

<para>This template prints a list of year elements with consecutive
years printed as a range. In other words:</para>

&lt;year&gt;1993&lt;/year&gt;

&lt;year&gt;1994&lt;/year&gt;</screen>


<para>is printed <quote>1992, 1994</quote>.</para>



<para>This template assumes that all the year elements contain only
decimal year numbers, that the elements are sorted in increasing
numerical order, that there are no duplicates, and that all the years
are expressed in full <quote>century+year</quote>
(<quote>1999</quote> not <quote>99</quote>) notation.</para>

<listitem>

<para>If non-zero, two consecutive years will be printed as a range,
otherwise, they will be printed discretely. In other words, a single
year range is <quote>1991-1992</quote> but discretely it's
<quote>1991, 1992</quote>.</para>

<refpurpose>Returns localized choice separator</refpurpose>

<synopsis>&lt;xsl:template name="select.choice.separator"/&gt;</synopsis>
</refsynopsisdiv>
<refsect1><title>Description</title>
    
<para>This template enables auto-generation of an appropriate
    localized "choice" separator (for example, "and" or "or") before
    the final item in an inline list (though it could also be useful
    for generating choice separators for non-inline lists).</para>

    
<para>It currently works by evaluating a processing instruction
    (PI) of the form &lt;?dbchoice choice="foo"?&gt; :
    
<itemizedlist>
      <listitem>
        <simpara>if the value of the <tag>choice</tag>
        pseudo-attribute is "and" or "or", returns a localized "and"
        or "or"</simpara>
      </listitem>
      <listitem>
        <simpara>otherwise returns the literal value of the
        <tag>choice</tag> pseudo-attribute</simpara>
      </listitem>
    </itemizedlist>

    The latter is provided only as a temporary workaround because the
    locale files do not currently have translations for the word
    <wordasword>or</wordasword>. So if you want to generate a a
    logical "or" separator in French (for example), you currently need
    to do this:
    <literallayout>&lt;?dbchoice choice="ou"?&gt;</literallayout>
    </para>

    <warning>
      
<para>The <tag>dbchoice</tag> processing instruction is
      an unfortunate hack; support for it may disappear in the future
      (particularly if and when a more appropriate means for marking
      up "choice" lists becomes available in DocBook).</para>

<para>This template evaluates an "info profile" matching the XPath

    extension function.</para>


    
<para>The value of the <parameter>profile</parameter> parameter
    can include the literal string <literal>$info</literal>. If found
    in the value of the <parameter>profile</parameter> parameter, the
    literal string <literal>$info</literal> string is replaced with
    the value of the <parameter>info</parameter> parameter, which
    should be a set of <replaceable>*info</replaceable> nodes; the
    expression is then evaluated using the XSLT
    <function>evaluate()</function> extension function.</para>
