RE: Creating Hyperlinks using XSL and XML

Doug,

If you really want to use elements other than <A> to indicate links, you can
use the syntax:

<ArbitraryElementName xml:link="simple"
href="http://www.w3.org/">foo</ArbitraryElementName>

However, this will limit which tools can process the XLink. I recently
discovered that the W3C Amaya browser handles this nicely.
