That means you are using an XSLT 1.0 processor. Since you are using 
Java, consider upgrading to XSLT 2.0, it's a major step forward and 
makes grouping a breeze (i.e., it adds xsl:for-each-group and many other 
features, like regular expression matching, non-xml data retrieving, 
multiple result documents). See www.saxonica.com for the Java XSLT 2.0 
processor Saxon (others are AltovaXML, non-java, non-opensource, and 
Gestalt, Eiffel, open source).
