Re:  handling tags and PIs within a macro
Hi David,

Look, I am a newbie in Docbook XSL, there are many
things that I don't understand. We have transformed
all the documentation from LATEX to XML, and now I am
trying to figure out how to solve many
formatting/compilation problems. 

So if you see some incorrect terminology I use, pardon
me. :-)

Best regards,
Nancy
