RE:  handling tags and PIs within a macro
Hi Michael,

So how do you explain the fact that those macros are
parsed properly by the XSLTPROC according to the
defined templates, unless the macro contains the
mentioned problematic items? To add more information,
I am using Docbook XML.

Best regards,
Nancy
