FWIW, here's a shell script that uses xsltproc to render DocBook XML
into HTML.  You'll need to change the STYLESHEET variable to point at
whatever XML stylesheet you're using.  Invoke this script like this:

	bash$ db2html mydoc.xml


#!/bin/sh
STYLESHEET="$HOME/work2/ldp/xsl/ldp-html.xsl"
TMPFILE="/tmp/db2html.html"

rm -f "$TMPFILE"

xsltproc --output "$TMPFILE" "$STYLESHEET" "$@"

if [ "$OSTYPE" = "cygwin" ]
then
	if [ -f "$TMPFILE" ]
	then
		cygstart "$TMPFILE"
	else
		messagebox db2html "No HTML file produced due to errors!"
	fi
else
	echo "HTML file is $TMPFILE."
fi

exit 0
