Joerg and J.Pietschmann,

The file below, adjusted per your recommendations, worked!! :)  Thank you so
much.  

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet
    xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
    xmlns:xhtml="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
    version="1.0">
<xsl:output method="xml" encoding="UTF-8"/>
	<xsl:template match="*|@*|text()|comment()">
		<xsl:copy>
			<xsl:apply-templates
select="*|@*|text()|comment()"/>
		</xsl:copy>
	</xsl:template>
	<xsl:template match="xhtml:div[@class='mgronly']"/>
</xsl:stylesheet>

May I ask one more question that will hopefully help me understand more
about XSL?  I understand now why the xhtml namespace is necessary.  But I
don't understand why adding the second template worked.  If the first one
says "copy everything," the second one must somehow override or modify the
first.  But syntactically, I don't see how that is accomplished.

Thanks again for your help.  I have been trying to solve this problem for
several weeks.

Kathryn
