Re: [xsl] XHTML table of contents with XSLT

["Daniel K. Schneider" <Daniel.Schneider@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Now I am talking to myself :)

The problem below went away in Firefox when I adopted the David Carlisle
and Martin Honnen solution.

Conclusion: For those who want a TOC generating or TOC-generaing, h1 and h2 
numbering stylesheet for XHTML:

Simple TOC:
http://tecfa.unige.ch/guides/xml/examples/xsl-toc/xhtml-toc-ns.xsl

Numbered TOC and headers:
http://tecfa.unige.ch/guides/xml/examples/xsl-toc/xhtml-toc-ns-numbered.xsl

Directory of files (also the bad stuff I made)
http://tecfa.unige.ch/guides/xml/examples/xsl-toc/

Of course, they produce ugly looking output, but that would be easy to fix.
Thanx very much your help, I learned something about namespaces - Daniel
