Re: Displaying Descriptions Based on Codes

Create another xml file that contains the description for the codes, and get
them into the stylesheet using document().  You can create a key to do fast
lookup if the code list is lengthy.  I do this on one job for FIPS codes
(city, county, and state codes).
