Here's a key to the markup:

        [page-number]: serious technical mistake
        {page-number}: minor technical mistake
        <page-number>: important language/formatting problem
        (page-number): language change or minor formatting problem
        ?page-number?: reader question or request for clarification


Confirmed errors:


{20} 3rd paragraph of xml:lang:
Change the path in the reference from

     	http://ds0.internic.net/rfc/rfc1766.txt

to

     	http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/docs/rfc/rfc1766.txt



{33} 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."


(50) 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.


{93} example at bottom of page:

	these sites
  	<references xml:link="extended" inline="true">

should be

	<references xml:link="extended" inline="true">
	these sites

(Swap the lines.)
