Ah! Thanks for the reply. It prompted me to discover two things:

    IE(6) is just as happy to see the <? ... ?> syntax
and
    Adding:  xmlns:v="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:vml"   to the xslt
declarations results in the <HTML> tag in the xslt being inserted as <HTML
xmlns:v="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:vml">, obviating the need for the
<xml:namespace....> element.

And now it all works.


Many thanks,

Wayne
