Hi Norm:

<xsl:value-of> outputs the text content of a node, and the text content
of a node is a concatenation of all string values of all children nodes.


Consider the following:

<quote>To <underline>boldly</underline> go where no man has gone
before</quote>

In this case, what is the quote?  Clearly it is: To boldly go where no
man has gone before.  

In your XML is the content under <sub> considered to be part of the
<name> or is it different?  If it is different, you should restructure
your XML such that sub is not a child of name.  One possibility is:

<chapter>
	<name>subscript</name>
	<sub>testsub</sub>
</chapter>

In this case, you could change your xslt like:

<xsl:template match="/">
	Name: <xsl:value-of select="name"/>
	Sub:	<xsl:value-of select="sub"/>
</xsl:template>

HTH!

Dion

Hi all,
I apologize for still bothering you all with this :(.   I have a very
simple xml/xsl file.  I am using IE 5.5 to open the xml file and the out
put is this:
    'subscript testsub'
Why didn't it do the actual subscript of 'testsub'?   I am so confused
and frustrated at this issue.  I truly need your expert advice on this.

Thank you all so much in advance.

Norm
