I don't get it. This result is not a product of an XSL processor, right? The view-source in the browser does not actually show the (invalid) html you illustrated? It just displays 'as if' there was a </p> there, if I understand your use of the word 'effectively'. I'm guessing your problem is a layout/browser one, rather than an XSL/Syntax one. So which is the browser? Netscape, which has a habit of dropping out of styles at every level of nesting it can, or IE, which 'effectively' throws <p>s around everything it finds? Thus you sit down hacking at a save-source version of your output, and try to confuse the browsers to the point where they give up and let you get the page the way you want... try DIVs, SPANs, inlining your class defs as styles, ensure there are no '_'s anywhere in your css definitions and that all the ';'s are in the right place... Gotta love it. But as I say, I can't see how it can be an XSL thing. .da. :=====================:====================: : Dan Morrison : The Web Limited : : http://here.is/dan : http://web.co.nz : : dman@xxxxxxxx : danm@xxxxxxxxx : : 04 384 1472 : 04 495 8250 : : 025 207 1140 : : :.....................:....................: : If ignorance is bliss, why aren't more people happy? :.........................................: XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
