Martin With your solution, what would be needed would be to use Omega/Lambda (Unicode versions) instead of TeX/LaTeX. Nothing would be needed: the character data in Dan's stylesheet just "drops through" to latex so it will by default do the wrong thing there (sorry, TeX has this in built bias towards 1970's US-English:-) Although you could load one of the utf8 packages which will deal with many cases of utf8 documents even using standard TeX, or should just "drop through" to omega and do the right thing by default if omega is used. While such a stylesheet is useful if you have some hand authored xhtml it relies on some very special conventions and magic comments (for table layout) so it's not a general xhtml to latex convertor. If you are having to write the document specifcally for this tool you seem to get more benefits from XML if you author in some other format rather than xhtml so that you can get much better automated procesing of cross refs etc, you can then generate the xhtml and latex in parallel from this source. Styles to go to xhtml and latex from the w3c's xmlspec dtd markup are in the mathml REC distribution, for example.
