Hey guys,
	Does anyone know if XPATH will allow pattern matching in attribute 
values.  Something like:


//[@osisID="Gen.26.*"]

Dear Troy,

Thanks for the note.  Certainly, it's possible to display anything.  I'm a 
newcomer to XML/XSL, however, I suspect the XSL code to display all verses 
of Gen.26 is a little awkward looking.

Does the browser/interpreter need to search all verses for equality with 
the osisID , rather than working down the tree structure 
book->chapter->verse?  I don't know.

Best wishes,

Chris
