 Thanks for the replies! Unfortunately, I'm still having problems. I tried applying a simple version of Mr. Gandhi's stylesheet that should print just the ANSI characters: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <xsl:stylesheet version="2.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"> <xsl:output method="html" encoding="UTF-8" /> <xsl:template match="/resultset"> <html> <body> <xsl:for-each select="65 to 90"> <xsl:variable name="letter" select="code-points-to-string(.)" /> <p><xsl:value-of select="$letter" /></p> </xsl:for-each> </body> </html> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> I receive the following error: Expected token 'eof' found 'NAME'. 65 -->to <--90 I can't find much of anything on the web about this error. I'm testing this by opening the XML file in IE6 (the file links to the stylesheet with <?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="glossary.xsl"?>). Any help is appreciated. Thanks again!
