You don't appear to have any code that calls your named template.

Subject: [xsl] Replace Apostrophe Template -- very brief 
example...not working


Hi, since I realize I posted my example that I'm sure was too 
long for anyone to want to slogg through it, I'm reposting 
with a very brief example hoping someone can help me.

I'm using Jeni T's replace-apostrophe template, but when I 
transform the
file into html source (MSXML4) the apostrophes have NOT 
change to \'     --
where am I going wrong...PLEASE?

Thanks, Kathy
