I sympathize. And I find xslt extremely counter-intuitive--every time I work with it, I spend hours trying to figure out how to do s.t. which seems like it should be trivial. I guess if I used xslt every day...but I don't feel that way about other computer languages that I use on an occasional basis. I don't suppose an alternative solution would work--doing it in Python or some other language that implements SAX or DOM? Mike Maxwell
