Hi,

Taking my first steps with QuickBook. Running my test project with

boostbook standalone
   : poly_collection
   :
     <xsl:param>boost.root=../../../..
   ;

works fine *when the directory is properly embedded into the Boost 
tree*. So far so good, but I know want to generate the doc for
outside consumption, much in the same way as, say, Antony Polukhin
has done in:

http://apolukhin.github.io/magic_get/index.html

So, I changed the Jamfile to this (following what I found in Antony's code)

boostbook standalone
   : poly_collection
   :
<xsl:param>boost.root=http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_62_0
   ;

but, to my dismay, this fails to produce docs properly linking to 
absolute CSS and images in boost.org.

Any clue? Thank you very much
