Re: How to Xinclude an Introduction in a chapter (ie, no <section>)?

[Jeffrey Walton <noloader@gmail.com>]

My Bad -

I should have mentioned the errors I am getting. Below ch03.xml is the
chapter, and ch03a.xml is the introduction. ch03b.xml, ... ch03e.xml
wraps everything in a customary <section></section> and validates
fine.

$ xsltproc -V
