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).</p><p>It currently works by evaluating a processing instruction
(PI) of the form <?dbchoice choice="foo"?> :
</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; "><li class="listitem">if the value of the <code class="sgmltag-element">choice</code>
pseudo-attribute is "and" or "or", returns a localized "and"
or "or"</li><li class="listitem">otherwise returns the literal value of the
<code class="sgmltag-element">choice</code> pseudo-attribute</li></ul></div><p>
The latter is provided only as a temporary workaround because the
locale files do not currently have translations for the word
<em class="wordasword">or</em>. So if you want to generate a a
logical "or" separator in French (for example), you currently need
to do this:
</p><div class="literallayout"><p><?dbchoice choice="ou"?></p></div><p>
</p><div class="warning" style="margin-left: 0.5in; margin-right: 0.5in;"><h3 class="title">Warning</h3><p>The <code class="sgmltag-element">dbchoice</code> 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).</p></div></div></div><div class="navfooter"><hr><table width="100%" summary="Navigation footer"><tr><td width="40%" align="left"><a accesskey="p" href="template.string.lower.html">Prev</a> </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="u" href="base.html">Up</a></td><td width="40%" align="right"> <a accesskey="n" href="template.evaluate.info.profile.html">Next</a></td></tr><tr><td width="40%" align="left" valign="top">string.lower </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="h" href="../index.html">Home</a></td><td width="40%" align="right" valign="top"> evaluate.info.profile</td></tr></table></div></body></html>
