ID and IDREF: would be useful to point out that IDs must |
start with a letter, and can only contain (I believe) letters, digits,
underscore.
Insert the following sentence after "...as IDs and ID references."
"These types must start with a letter and can only contain
letters, digits, and underscores."

last paragraph |
The paragraph states that "The <xsl:number> element has three primary
attributes that can be set: count, level, and format." This line should read
"...four primary attributes that can be set: count, level, from, and format."
This is supported by the discussion of the "from" attribute on page 52.
