Hi Eliot,

I understand that a DOCTYPE declaration can contain any valid element in
the DTD.  But I'm wondering if there's a way that XSL can insert this
element name when it creates the declaration via xsl:output or
xsl:document.

My sense was that XSLT automatically puts the root element of your output document in your DOCTYPE line as you specified it in your stylesheet, so y ou don't have to do it yourself. That seems to have happened with all of my XSLT scripts to date. However, I'm not positive that's exactly what's happening -- does anyone know the real technical details?
