Hi,

I am trying to convert a simple html page with css to an xml page with xsl.
The page is very simple, it just has a few images and some anchor tags and about
6 different sections that the anchors refer to. It seems so simple that I
should be able to figure it out, alas I need some help.
I did not really understand the goals you are trying to achieve.
Why don't you stick with XHTML? That ought to be much more usable than this
home-made XML document.
It's bad practice to keep inventing new element names (a1,b1,...) in your XML.
But if you insist on using your own XML, try to separate content, style and
accessibility
All those headerlinks and '<link><a href="#top" >back to top</a></link>' belong
in the XSL.
Here you have a basic stylesheet that tries to make something useful out of the
provided XML
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>
<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="acadguide">
<html>
<head>
<title><xsl:value-of select="title"/></title>
</head>
<body>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</body>
</html>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="figures/*">
<a href="{full_src}" title="Click to enlarge this image">
<img src="{thumb_src}" title="{caption}"/>
</a>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="link[href]">
<a href="{href}">
<xsl:value-of select="label"/>
</a>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="a">
<xsl:copy-of select="."/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="section">
<p><xsl:apply-templates/></p>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="title">
<h1><xsl:apply-templates/></h1>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="section/title">
<h1><a>
<xsl:attribute name="name">
<xsl:text>section_</xsl:text><xsl:number count="section"
format="001"/>
</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</a></h1>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="subtitle">
<h2><xsl:apply-templates/></h2>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
