Once I looked in the XSL spec and figured out it inserts the comment for
me this worked great. Thanks a lot. I also ended up adding CDATA to
prevent my JavaScript from being parsed. (Hard to edit when it's full of
character escapes.) End solution looks like the following:
<style type='text/css'>
<xsl:comment><![CDATA[
...
//]]></xsl:comment>
</style>
<script language = "javascript"><xsl:comment><![CDATA[
...
//]]></xsl:comment>
</script>
Thanks also to [EMAIL PROTECTED], I didn't try your solution, but I
appreciate the help.
