I guess you like to customize your output a bit to match your site as 
well. All of this can be done.

I actually described that paces it took me to get things going. And I use 
it to bend the html output a lot to fit into different sites.
Just compare these two links created from the same SGML DocBook source:
http://hvdkooij.xs4all.nl/docs/Nessus-FAQ.html
http://www.nessus.org/doc/faq.html

The steps I took are written down on:
http://hvdkooij.xs4all.nl/docs-docbook.cms

I hope that helps.

Hugo.
