Dave,
Thank you very much for your quick responce. I agree with you that
this should be in the FAQ. I'll give it a try.

The spec also says, in 16.2, in the paragraph previous to the one you're
citing:
The html output method should not output an element differently from the
xml output method unless the expanded-name of the element has a null
namespace URI; an element whose expanded-name has a non-null namespace
URI should be output as XML. If the expanded-name of the element has a
null namespace URI, but the local part of the expanded-name is not
recognized as the name of an HTML element, the element should output in
the same way as a non-empty, inline element such as span.
Since you have declared a default namespace, all of the literal result
elements in your stylesheet have a non-null namespace URI. Simply remove
the following namespace declaration from your stylesheet:
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40";
If this isn't a FAQ, it ought to be.

Hey all,
I am transforming a xml doc into HTML. I am having legacy browser
support issues.
In the Spec is says that if the method="html" that any <br/> elements
will be outputed without an ending tag. What I keep getting is <br/> in
the HTML.
Netscape 4.7 ingnores the <br/> and the page looks like crap. when I
change all of the <br/> to <br> it works fine.
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40";
xmlns:xalan="http://xml.apache.org/xslt";>
<xsl:output method="html" media-type="text/html"/>
So is this a new bug or what am I doing wrong.
Thanks,
Jay
