Re: [xsl] Value of <id> element not returned

[Wendell Piez <wapiez@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

ASP,

Your code looks fine. It's not clear why you're not getting the values, 
assuming everything in your source and stylesheet is as given.

All I can suggest is that you post again with a *complete* sample input and 
stylesheet the demonstrates the problem (it's good for it to be trimmed 
down, but it should be ready to run), which we can paste somewhere and test.

It's also wise to tell us what processor you're using, etc., although this 
particular problem doesn't look very likely to be a processor bug....

Cheers,
Wendell
