Exactly what I'm doing. Additional advantage: Got me off my duff to *use*
XSL. ;)

Re: your comments about 70% CSS1 support in major browsers.... In general,
I tend to be one of those bovine sorts who go along to get along -- trying
to remember that the frustrations of waiting for some particular
sub-technology today are painful exactly *because* the overall technology
didn't exist at all a few years ago. 

Still, every now and then some little absence (like generated text) just
rubs me the wrong way.

Thanks for your comments, Chris.
