There are also some tools that you can use to generate XSLT for  
formatting output based on the structure defined in your DTD. Check  
out Altova StyleVision: http://www.altova.com/products/stylevision/xslt_stylesheet_designer.com

Also feel free to contact me off-list if you have any questions...

Hope this helps!
