Fwd: help with ulink in xml file

[Adam Sommer]

You're welcome Jim,

I had a question about <ulink> versus <xref>, mostly pertaining to
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-doc/+bug/162794, the <ulinks> work fine in
Yelp but when the docs are built the link points to a .xml file instead of a
.html file.  I'm just wondering which way is better?

The issue with <xref> is that if you're cross referencing a section in
another chapter the file won't validate for example the
generic/server/C/mail.xml file.  There is a <ulink> to the self-signed cert
section in the Postfix section that doesn't build correctly, but validates.
While the <xref> in the Dovecot section doesn't validate, but builds
correctly.

The chapter does validate if you do a ./validate generic/server/C/server.xml
however.  Just wanted to get some input on the bug and <xref> v. <ulink>.

Thanks all.

This has worked for me, also.  If anyone has a different suggestion, please
let me know.
