As I see it, one is better off even with HTML 4.01 by not using the built-in "html" output method of XSLT but instead taking out SAX events or a DOM tree from the off-the-shelf transformer and feeding the SAX events or the DOM tree to an HTML 4.01 serializer that uses namespaced elements as opposed to namespaced elements. This way the disruption to transformation sheets is minimized when switching between text/html and application/xhtml+xml targets. -- Henri Sivonen hsivonen@iki.fi http://hsivonen.iki.fi/
