Re: Using IE's CC (Conditional Comments) inside an XSL

:D  Very cool!  Whats great about this is the survival from Xalan to
Saxon > coming from a bit of experience with this, I can attest to the
fact that the transition, dependent, of course, on the code base being
transfered, is not always an easy one...

Actually, I just noticed you had this set inside of a template...

EVEN BETTER!!!  Thanks!  I plan to take advantage of your solution (e.g.
replace mine with yours :D)
