This usually indicates one of two things. First, not qualifying an element name when it should be qualified (the testing might not have used the namespace, and so might not have used qualified names). This seems unlikely here, since your testing produced FO outputs. Second, the template may not be getting invoked because the context in which it is applied is not what you think. IOW, when you integrated your test code into the larger stylesheet, the processing is happening differently from what you had in mind. This possibility seems like the most likely. Although we cannot help without seeing more - but try to condense it to the bare minimum that exhibits the problem, please! - you can find out what the context is by inserting the following just ahead of the template that is not producing any output - <xsl:copy-of select='.'/> This way you will see exactly what is being processed at that point. If this template is not called, then keep working your way backwards until you find the last place processing is happening. You do not need to use the copy-of to find this place - just put some distinctive text in, like '==========', so that you can find it right away in the output. With these two techniques, you will be able to rapidly find out where things are behaving differently from what you expect. It will probably be easier than using a debugger for this kind of situation, and you can use them with any processor. Anyway, however you do it, make sure that the node(s) being processed at the point of interest is the one(s) you had in mind.
