RE: Generating variable DOCTYPE

If I write an extension function that returns the DOCTYPE as a String, will
this work ? Or will this still be a text node with a bunch of characters ? I
have experience with writing small extension functions, but I have no idea
how I can return an DOCTYPE.

Ismaël,

This only works if your result is a serialised XML document. If,
instead of writing to a file or socket or whatever, you were to
send the output of the transform to a DOM tree, you'd end up with
a text node containing a bunch of characters which looks like a 
DOCTYPE definition. You would NOT end up with a proper DOCTYPE
node in the DOM tree.
