So this may not be the best list to > help you. No, my problem had nothing to do with HTML. My problem was trying to figure out how to split a fairly complicated piece of output into two columns. The problem would have been the same if I were outputting to plain text. David Carlisle also provided the solution to that, which was to generate the whole, sorted list into a variable, and then select into that variable to break it in half. That might not be very clear, though, since I feel like I just butchered it in the explanation. Maybe I just did a poor job explaining myself from the get-go, though. Thanks for your help (and for Saxon, without which I would be up a creek sans paddle)! Will.
