XSLT conformance of MSXML2

[Kay Michael <Michael.Kay@xxxxxxx>]

The help file included with the MSXML2 product lists XSLT elements and XPath
functions provided, and the "What's new" page on the web site lists elements
and functions that are *not* available.

Neither list includes xsl:key, xsl:decimal-format, format-number(), key(),
document(). (There may be others, I haven't checked exhaustively)

Initial investigations suggest:

xsl:key and the key() function are rejected
xsl:decimal-format is rejected
format-number() without a third argument appears to work, but ignores the
supplied format pattern.
document() is rejected

Anyone with different evidence, please let me know!

Running MSXML2 under IE5, I find that if I change the stylesheet and hit
refresh, the browser just hangs. If I close it and double-click on the XML
file in Windows Explorer, the file is displayed in its new style. Anyone
else experienced this?
