 Hello all. I've run into a problem with the ordering of my output. I've tried looking for an answer, but I can't find one in the archives or via Google, so I'm turning to you for help. If this is a FAQ/RTM question, please let me know where the FAQ list/Manual are as I can't seem to find them. The project is to take an article for an ezine and transform it into HTML (and PDF eventually). I've got the XML for the articles created, and I'm working with the XSL file now. The problem I have is that when I run the XSL file as it is below through Xalan-J, I get an output file that has a list of headers followed by a list of paragraphs. What I'm looking to get is an intermingled list of headers and paragraphs. Thanks for your help! ARTICLE.XML <?xml version="1.0" ?> <article> <title>This would hold the title of the article.</title> <summary>This is a one sentance summary of the article.</summary> <author email="someone@xxxxxxxxxxxxx" homepage="http://somewhere.com/author">John Doe</author> <aboutAuthor>Biographical information goes in here.</aboutAuthor> <section>Introduction</section> <para sectionTitle="Introduction">put some text here. put some text here. put some text here. put some text here. </para> <para> <link destination="Slashdot.org" name="slashdot" /> <link destination="http://www.cnn.com" name="CNN" /> <link destination="http://www.mozilla.org/" name="Mozilla" /> </para> <section>Installation</section> <para> put some text here. put some text here. put some text here. put some text here. </para> <para>abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz. abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz. abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz. abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz. </para> <section>Using the program</section> <para>put some text here. put some text here. put some text here. put some text here. </para> <para><warning>Do Not feed the Lions!</warning> <emphasis>put some text here.</emphasis> put some <emphasis>text</emphasis> here. put some text here. </para> <para>abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz. <link destination="http://slashdot.org" name="slashdot" /> abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz. abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz. abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz. </para> <para> <keyboardInput>ftp ftp.mozilla.org</keyboardInput></para> <para>in the <objectName>System Setup</objectName> folder, select the <objectName>Mouse</objectName> object and go to the Comet Cursor page. Make sure the <dialogOption>Comet Cursor On</dialogOption> option has a checkmark in the box.
