Re: [xsl] messing about with XSLT

["director@xxxxxxxxxxxxx" <xsl-list-service@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I do as well. I've also developed a habit of wrapping such diagnostic 
output in a <testDD/>, where DD = the current date. That way I can 
quickly find both the diagnostic output and the XSLT code that generated 
it. Children elements label individual parts of the output, e.g.,

<test21>
   <base-uri>file:/c:/SOME%20TEXT.xml</base-uri>
   <x-has-y>true</x-has-y>
</test21>
