Can I ask for a bit more explanation?  I have so far created a modified
version of Sword's HTMLHREF filters (for OSIS and GBF), copying some
things from BibleTime.  I can't use either BibleTime's or Sword's
filters unmodified, as I need to customise the hrefs for one thing.  Why
is this a bad idea?

Cheers, and thanks for the info,

Luke
