[l2h] Re: latex2html: frames, layout comments

[Chris Fox]

A cannot get the sub frame_naviation_panel definition in the .init 
file to work either.  I need this to work so that I can remove a 
redundant `content' button (I want the content frame displayed at all 
times).  I have not seen a fix on the list.

Playing around a bit, in the version of Perl I have (5.004_05) it 
seems that the last most definition of any sub takes precedence, even 
if it is defined in a conditional context that should not be 
executed.  The only way I can get customised navigation panels in the 
intended way is to redefine sub frame_navigation_panel in frame.pl so 
that it contains an appropriate conditional, rather than being 
contained within a conditional, e.g. replacing:

if (! defined &frame_navigation_panel) {
    sub frame_navigation_panel {
        "$NEXT $UP $PREVIOUS $CONTENTS $INDEX $CUSTOM_BUTTONS";};};

by:

sub frame_navigation_panel {
   if (! defined &custom_frame_navigation_panel) {
      "$NEXT $UP $PREVIOUS $CONTENTS $INDEX $CUSTOM_BUTTONS";
   } else {
      &custom_frame_navigation_panel
   }
}

Then sub custom_frame_naviation_panel can be defined in the .init 
file if required.  There is probably a more elegant way of doing 
this, but it works for me.
