RE: Problem reading root element in XML Stylesheet bas

I'll make sure its very prominent at the top of the namespace faq page,
but I think people don't see this as a namespace problem David.

How can I get them to find it when they are not looking for the right thing?
Suggestions welcome.

regards DaveP
