Ben,
I'm glad you saw my compliments about your book. One question....you
use the term deprecated code. I've seen it used many times elsewhere.
This may be a dumb question, but what does it mean. The dictionary
definition of deprecated is
dep�re�cate (d�p�r�-k�t�) tr.v. de�pre�cat�ed, de�pre�cat�ing,
de�pre�cates. 1. To express disapproval of; deplore. 2. To belittle;
depreciate. --dep�re�cat�ing�ly adv. --dep�re�ca�tion n. --dep�re�ca�
tor n.
Thanks,
Rachel

I'm glad you and Rachel find XML by Example useful.
In answer to your comments, I wanted to point out that I tried to
update
the obsolete XSL code on the support web site
(http://www.mcp.com/que/detail_que.cfm?item=0789722429). Some of the
updates have found their way in recent reprints so if you buy a copy
today,
it should contain little deprecated code (hopefully :-).
