Re: [xsl] ms:string-compare does NOT work in MSXML 4.0

["cutlass" <cutlass@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

there is nothing wrong with the code, as it runs properly

i would suggest going to www.bayes.co.uk/xml and using Chris's msxml
installer/sniffer there to make absolute sure that u have the correct MSXML
running.

also a quick read at www.netcrucible.com may assist in IE type probs,,
