Yes, what is in the <children> forms part of the URL.
Well let's say that the XML document is something like this

<profile number="1">
	<data>.....</data>
	<filename>datacycle.html</filename>
</profile>

<profile number="2">
	<data>.....</data>
	<filename>dataframe.html</filename>
</profile>
	.
	.
	.
	. and so on

The html generated with the ActiveX object takes in XML and XSL file.

 I wish to write a XSL rule that will generate information in the following
format.  

	Profile #: 1
	Data: Blah...blah...
	Filename: datacycle.html   <----- hyperlink to URL to open up the
file
	  
	Profile #:2
	Data: Blah...blah...
	Filename: dataframe.html   <----- hyperlink to URL to open up the
file

	.
	.
	.
	.
	.

but I had trouble trying to concatenate the HTML filename in <filename> tag
to the URL. The idea of what I am trying to do it something like this.

		<target-element type="Filename">

		</SPAN>
>> 		<a href="http://www.../<children/>.htm">
>> 		<children/>
>> 		</a>

I want the content in the tag to be used as part of the URL of the
hyperlink.

I hope it is clearer of what I am trying to achieve.
