Isn't the whole point of putting it in XML so that nobody has to know Gentran to figure this out?
The problem he is having is padding the product description so it looks nice. He has to fool XSL in order to do this. Very amusing. Maybe if he wrote the report in COBOL ...

People actually do use XML for "incoming customer Purchase Orders." This was seen on the xsl-list. I have no idea whether the XML PO was based on an open standard like UBL, but that's not the important point I wish to make. Everyone reading the note on xsl-list is probably familiar with XML syntax and XSLT stylesheets - whether they are mathematicians, teachers, agronomists, chemists, petroleum engineers, programmers, web designers, or whatever. There's safety in numbers. Wouldn't that be a hoot if a particle physicist helped this guy out? That wouldn't be such a stretch to imagine. But how many particle physicists know Gentran? .
