Hey all,
	I've been trying to maintain a large app at work that uses an XML
stylesheet to return valid HTML from XML documents stored in a CVS
repositry.

To make the story short, I've been trying to learn XSL in the vauge hope
it'll make life easier if I know what I'm trying to maintain :)

But I've already ran into a problem. I want to create a stylesheet that
will basically take in a "page" element, containing multiple "news" items.
Each "news" item will have a "author" value, a subject (the name of the
item), and a set of text.

For some reason the stylesheet I'm using prints the formatted text fine,
but then images the original text. I'm sure there's a fundimental concept
I'm missing here :)

Eg, I want this:
  <HTML><HEAD><TITLE>A page</TITLE></HEAD><BODY>
   Subject: Blah
   Author:  Me
    Hello, I am a news item.
    This is line 2.
  </BODY></HTML>

What I get is this:
  <HTML><HEAD><TITLE>A page</TITLE></HEAD><BODY>
   Subject: Blah
   Author:  Me
    Hello, I am a news item.
    This is line 2.

  Me Hello, I am a news item.
  This is line 2.
  </BODY></HTML>

With the second part just a phantom.

Here's the XML I'm starting with:
	www.nehahra.com/test.xml

Here's the XSL I'm trying to apply:
	www.nehahra.com/test.xsl

Thanks in advance :)

Regards,	| If I must have computer systems with publically
	 Ender  | available terminals, the maps they display of my complex
  (James Brown)	| will have a room clearly marked as the Main Control Room.
		| That room will be the Execution Chamber. The actual main
		| control room will be marked as Sewage Overflow Containment.
