Wow.  I didn't mean to inspire such a debate.  I am absolutely an XML/XSLT
novice so you can rest assured the page will be pretty vanilla.  I want to
make it look nice yet be browser independent (hence remove the '+' thingy).
It is tough work removing all the fancy work Glenn put in.

 The end result will be the original intent... originally when a new FAQ
needed added all the formatting had to be done for each FAQ.  I wanted a way
to just be able to insert something like this:

<faq>
  <question>blah?</question>
  <answer>do dah!</answer>
</faq>

and then have all the formatting automatically apply and display it nicely
for me.  This I hope to achieve.  Time will tell.  The program I am using
makes it easy enough to generate the HTML file so I will just do that and
upload the finished XML, XSLT and HTML files when completed.
