Thanks -- I had been thinking about needing to have it inline as an escape because the idea of dropping a request in the midst of a block of text doesn't map to what I'm used to (XML and HTML markup). Anyway, I can see how to get my stylesheet to generate this just as easily as generating inline markup. And I am learning some general things from your answers (in this case, how to handle multiple arguments for a macro), so if your patience holds out, I promise my questions will get less rudimentary as I learn more. --Mike -- Michael(tm) Smith http://people.w3.org/mike/ http://sideshowbarker.net/
