Re: tables html dsssl HELP!

[Ted Kandell <ted@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm working with Billy Mahoney on this project.

 I ran your test example through Jade and got the output in test.fot and
test.css
These files look OK to me but when I run test.fot through nsgmls, I don't get
an .html file.
Is there something wrong with the current version of nsgmlsu? Try running it
yourself on test.fot.


Thanks,

Ted Kandell
