I find the first solution (which is what Andreas proposed) better. Maybe you are right - why should DocBook options belong to LyX dialogs? But then, why should LyX mess up with DocBook options through its ID mangling? As I see it, it is LyX which is trying to "do the parser's job", so nobody should be impressed that it is going to need some "parser's options" in its dialogs. -- Regards Chris Karakas http://www.karakas-online.de
