Code For XSLT Stylesheet"Hypertext_Fiction.xsl"
(Alan Liu's "Tracker" demo)

// Called by the XML document "falco_instance.xml" to transform XML into HTML for Web;
// Uses <SPAN> tags to format for HTML the content found in "nodes" in the XML document;
// Note the analogy between the XPATH language "select" statement that locates nodes (e.g.
// "select="REGISTER/WORK" and the SQL "select" statement
