- <para>If <parameter>activate.external.olinks</parameter> is nonzero
 
- (the default), then any olinks that reference another document
 
- become active links that can be clicked on to follow the link.
 
- If the parameter is set to zero, then external olinks
 
- will have the appropriate link text generated, but the link is
 
- not made active.  Olinks to destinations in
 
- the current document remain active.</para>
 
- <para>To make an external olink active for HTML
 
- outputs, the link text is wrapped in an <tag>a</tag>
 
- element with an <tag>href</tag> attribute. To
 
- make an external olink active for FO outputs, the link text is
 
- wrapped in an <tag>fo:basic-link</tag> element with an
 
- <tag>external-destination</tag> attribute.</para>
 
- <para>This parameter is useful when you need external olinks
 
- to resolve but not be clickable. For example, if documents
 
- in a collection are available independently of each other,
 
- then having active links between them could lead to
 
- unresolved links when a given target document is missing.</para>
 
- <para>The epub stylesheets set this parameter to zero by default
 
- because there is no standard linking mechanism between Epub documents.</para>
 
- <para>If external links are made inactive, you should
 
- consider setting the
 
- stylesheet parameter <parameter>olink.doctitle</parameter>
 
- to <literal>yes</literal>. That will append the external document's
 
- title to the link text, making it easier for the user to
 
- locate the other document.</para>
 
- <para>An olink is considered external when the
 
- <parameter>current.docid</parameter> stylesheet parameter
 
- is set to some value, and the olink's <tag>targetdoc</tag>
 
- attribute has a different value. If the two values
 
- match, then the link is considered internal.  If the
 
- <parameter>current.docid</parameter> parameter is blank, or
 
- the <tag>olink</tag> element does not have a <tag>targetdoc</tag> attribute,
 
- then the link is considered to be internal and will become
 
- an active link.</para>
