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
