Re: [xsl] Getting Entity File Names

[Betty Harvey <betty@xxxxxxxxxx>]

There is a kicker - I thought of that also!  The files themselves don't
reference the DTD but they do contain ISO characters and not UNICODE
characters.  

I guess I could include the ISO character sets in my XSLT.  That would
probably be the quickest way to do it. It would also be easier if there
were only one title per file.  Somewhere in those files, there are 3 extra
titles.

Thanks!
