RE: [xsl] call-template from href NO SERVER INVOLVED ???

Oh my gosh!  Michael Kay...I'm honored that you
responded (seriously).  I'm digesting every morsel of
your message and have been studying your book for
days.  There is just so-o-o-o-o-o much information on
the subject.  We finally came to the conclusion that
we need an XSLT processor and have been trying to
implement a command line call using Xalan.  We'll keep
on trying.  Thanks, again, so much for responding.

Have a great day,
Patricia
