Thanks Frank,

But that uses the MSXML. I am using Xalan (company standard) to do the
transformation. Also, the one I modified (see link below) is a
cross-platform/cross-browser dhtml/js solution that does not require frames.

The DHTML/JS code is available at:
http://developer.netscape.com/docs/examples/index.html?content=javascript.ht
ml
click on JavaScript Collapsible Lists

But, I got it working. My brain was not working when I tried my first
template (which I spent about 2hrs on...).  I left it alone for a few hours
and got back to it, started fresh, and finished in about 10 minutes.
