My bad (I had specified XHTML2 by mistake), but I found two(?) bugs when
looking around for the cause:

1: Linked stylesheets should be in a "link" element, /not/ "style". See
template "getCSS" in html4.xsl, lines 615 and 617. Bug submitted.

2: Even though the "html" element has declared @xmlns, a lot of other
elements have @xmlns, and some of them are empty.  This results in the
markup being displayed as plain text. Example:

<span xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"; id="about">
  <a xmlns="" href="XFormsServlet?form=/forms/about.xhtml">About</a>
</span>

I don't know if this is just something I'm doing wrong, so no bug has
been submitted.

Also, maybe the handling of user JS references should be independent of
the Chiba JS? I'd like to be able to use my own JS independent of the
Chiba AJAX functionality.
