Hello!

We use <acronym> but it really has no use currently.  As of right now our 
setups do as follows:

  XSL:   Puts acronym inside <span class="acronym">
  DSSSL: Puts acronym inside <ACRONYM CLASS="acronym">

I've been trying to get this working with XSL but am failing, and by
working I mean for example:

Replace: <acronym>HTML</acronym>
With:    <acronym title="Hypertext Markup Language">HTML</acronym>

Seems like a simple concept I know.  I first started messing around with
glossary tags (with glossentry.show.acronym) but gave up on that.  Then, I
found this little gem of a resource:

  http://www.dpawson.co.uk/xsl/sect2/replace.html#d7796e115

With a version of this I can get XSL to match the <acronym> tags but the
HTML output returns nothing instead of the actual acronym so essentially
I've implemented a template to remove all acronyms!  I'm giving up for now
in the hope that someone with XSL knowledge can implement this in a
working fashion.  Anyone?  I don't think it's worth doing it in DSSSL.

Regards,
Philip
