*Sigh*... Maybe if someone has a free week or two, they could go through the archive and collect a link to every message that comes in on this. Then we could refer simply to that page of links.

Mike, by saying "use WD-XSL", your employer, client or friend has in effect said "don't use XSL".

FAQ at www.netcrucible.com. You aren't likely to get much help on how to use MS WD-XSL. The most I can tell you is that XPath and XSLT functions such as concat, substring etc. won't work -- and that the technology is both proprietary, and obsolete.

Is your requirement at all negotiable? From a strategic point of view, WD-XSL is almost certainly a mistake. (I can barely imagine extenuating circumstances....)

Good luck (you'll need it),

I know that using XSLT it works fine, BUT, I'm suppose to use the
http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-xsl.

Any help will be appreciated.
