I sympathize with your struggles (imagine migrating to a new version of WebLogic literally *days* before a major production release--we did that once, and once only), but Michael does make it pretty clear on Saxon's home page that 7.4 is an *experimental* release, based on the very fluid and non-final specifications of XSLT 2.0/XPath 2.0. Unless you have specific needs for XSLT 2.0 features in your stylesheets, I'm not sure why you'd want to migrate at such a critical point. If you need only XSLT 1.0 conformance, you'd be better off using 6.5.2, which is the recommended production release. Or (as I see that Jeni just mentioned) be sure your version in your stylesheets is set to 1.0, so that Saxon won't use XPath 2.0 type-checking in its transformations. good luck, b. | brian martinez brian.martinez@xxxxxxxx | | senior gui programmer 303.708.7248 | | trip network, inc. fax 303.790.9350 | | 6436 s. racine cir. englewood, co 80111 | | http://www.cheaptickets.com/ http://www.trip.com/ | XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
