Most Excellent Ross, Just a question. How do you propose managing Docbook :-) Stupid ppl, like me, like to use the power of all the Docbook Stylesheets as they do 99% of everything we need for publishing. So, as you know, there is a set of XHTML XSLT for DocbookXML2XHTML. If Forrest could input the XHTML from Docbook it would be so nice. dbxml > X/HTML (single/chunked) > input > internal > output > formats -- Sean Wheller Technical Author [EMAIL PROTECTED] 084-854-9408 http://www.inwords.co.za ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Registered Linux User #375355 http://wenzani.blogspot.com/
