Hello everybody,
                        I was interested in knowing whether it is possible
to format specific pieces of text within an element's content using XSL. I
would like to make my question a bit clearer by giving an example. Suppose I
have the following element:

<para>
			This publication covers the equipment found in the
			Auxiliary, Blower and Engine Cab Areas (Fig. 1). For
repair
			or overhaul of specific equipment listed in this
publication,
			refer to the  Backshop Manual.
</para>

Here I want to define the text "Fig 1" as a hyperlink that opens an image in
another browser window. Is it possible to apply foramatting within an
element to do that? I know that I can format the entire element but can I
format a portion of the content (e.g. have some text as bold, italicized,
hyperlinked etc)? 

I would be grateful if someone  can help me with this.

Thanks a lot,
Dhruv
