Hello -

so I am trying to place a DOCTYPE declaration in my XSLT,
but can't get it to render correctly - get errors like:

---
XML error
Cannot have a DOCTYPE declaration outside of a prolog. 
---

I have tried sticking it everywhere I can think...
using MSXML as the parser for xml and xslt... I have xhtml
templates that feed into a master xslt template document.

This brings me to this problem(?) - my outputted html
actually has:

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"; 
xmlns:apt="http://www.somedomain.com/applicationpagetemplate"; 
xmlns:module="http://www.somedomain.com/modules"; 
xmlns:modtag="http://www.somedomain.com/smart/tags"; 
xmlns:msxsl="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xslt"><xsl:template
match="pp">

as the opening tag before the <html> tag. Is this normal? or ok?


thanks for any tips and straight out help..

Regards,

David
