Great! Thank you very much.

Is unparsed-text-lines(...) always streaming, or is it streaming only when the
XSLT contains:

	<xsl:mode streamable="yes" />

The below XSLT program works great. Would it work differently if I were to
remove the xsl:mode? How do I know that the input is being streamed?  /Roger
