Hi,
I'm building a bilingual critical edition (Arabic/Latin) with TEI Publisher 10 + jinks on eXist-db 6.4.1.
My TEI file (averroes-sample.xml) has this structure:
<body>
<div type="book" n="1">
<div type="section" n="1">
<div type="textpart" xml:lang="ar" xml:id="ar-1-1">...</div>
<div type="textpart" xml:lang="la" xml:id="la-1-1">...</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
I want a parallel two-column view: Arabic on the left, Latin on the right, from the same document.
My parallel.html template:
<div class="parallel-view">
<pb-view src="document1" xpath="//div[@type='textpart'][@xml:lang='ar']" view="div" odd="averroes-edition"></pb-view>
<pb-view src="document1" xpath="//div[@type='textpart'][@xml:lang='la']" view="div" odd="averroes-edition"></pb-view>
</div>
Problem: both columns show the full document content (Arabic + Latin together), ignoring the xpath filter.
Questions:
What is the correct way to filter content by xml:lang using pb-view xpath?
Should I use view="single" or view="div"?
Is there a working example of a bilingual parallel view from a single TEI document?
Thank you
