I am not sure whether the URI as coded above is valid > or invalid -- in fact the XSLT1.0 specification does not define that. Microsoft software tends to accept a filename wherever a URI is mandated. In fact Saxon on .NET does so, too, because it relies on classes on the .NET platform that are specified as accepting URIs, but turn out also to accept filenames. I'm afraid when it comes to a choice between conforming to standards and doing what they think is right, Microsoft tend to do what they think is right. Sometimes this is helpful to users, sometimes it causes no end of problems. I have an open mind on this particular one. The URI specs are such a mess that one has sympathy with any implementor who tries to sort out the shambles. Michael Kay http://www.saxonica.com/
