Bob,

Are you saying we can use xml and xsl to do html style sheets?

Your document does process with the stock stylesheets, so it is something in your customization layer.  I believe it is the handling of the para element inside the footnote.

Your customization has a match="para".  Since it has higher import precedence, it overrides the special template that Norm wrote to handle the first para in a footnote.  You need to copy this template from html/footnote.xsl to your customization layer to raise its import
precedence:

<xsl:template match="footnote/para[1]|footnote/simpara[1]" priority="2">

This is a tricky issue in stylesheet customization.  Although this template in the original stylesheet has a more specific match, it has a lower import precedence, so it is not used unless it appears in your stylesheet.
