From 'the sage'

I note that my use of <link isn't being translated into page numbers.
As that section says, link elements don't generate page numbers. I suspect it because link text is arbitrary and page number references may not fit in. Seems like it could be an option, however.
Since the id of the target is available, it wouldn't be hard to get the page number Bob, but I don't think it would be much use, since I've provided the text for the link. I found that moving the id value to the parent resolved the links.
Is there any guidance (tdg perhaps?) as to what makes good / bad endpoints for links?
Hmm, not that I know of. According to the DTD, any element with an ID can logically be the end point of a cross reference. So it comes down to what the stylesheets actually support.
Less bothered about that, since I'm using xep with hot links (how to make them visible?)
Color?
yes. I'm hoping its a param.
There is an attribute set named 'xref.properties' that you can use. It is applied to link, olink, ulink, and xref text in FO output.
