RE: [xsl] difference between Result Tree Fragment (RTF) and a nodeset

["Michael Kay" <mhk@xxxxxxxxx>]

It's a very odd problem - the reason no one has given you an answer is
that no-one can think of an answer. Usually this means the problem is in
the part of the code that you haven't shown us. Occasionally - very
occasionally - it means you are using a buggy XSLT processor.

Please post a complete source document and stylesheet and the complete
output you are getting, and tell us which XSLT processor you are using
and how you invoked it.
