Assuming that you are using DocBook-XSL, here is how you can add the strike-through effect to inline content:

  1. Set the emphasis.propagates.style parameter to 1.

  2. Set the html.stylesheet parameter to a suitable value, for example mystyle.css.

  3. Add the following to mystyle.css:

    span.strike { text-decoration: line-through; }

  4. Use <emphasis role="strike">some text</emphasis> to mark up text snippets in your XML source file that should be decorated.

  5. Transform to HTML and behold the result.
