Thanks. What is odd is that everything works great until I have a
<!DOCTYPE..> declaration. I was wondering a little about the
'<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="uri:xsl">' myself, but since I grabbed it from
somewhere and everything worked, why change it.
If the "http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-xsl" or
"http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" are just namespaces which may not
necessarily relate to a real URI, then does it really matter what reference
we put in there? Couldn't "<xsl:stylesheet
xmlns:xsl="http://somedomain.com/dummyurl">' work just as well?
Yes, this is written for the Microsoft dialect, but there is no other choice
if you do not have access to a server that supports XML.
