That site has to be the worst I've seen for muddying the waters between IE's WD-xsl and XSLT. I'd recommend staying away from it if you want a clear understanding of what XSLT is. The <xsl:if match=""/> syntax was IE5 WD-xsl specific. <xsl:if test=""/> is the correct XSLT syntax. Visit http://www.netcrucible.com for a FAQ about the difference between the two, and for information on making sure you're using the correct version - MSXML3+ to use XSLT. On a side note, where'd you find a link to that site? In order to prevent more confusion caused by that site (there's plenty already WITHOUT that site's help), I'd recommend anyone linking to it either remove their links or put a strong disclaimer next to them. If someone that contributes to the www.w3schools.com site is on this list, PLEASE update your site to have a much cleaner definition of the two different languages and add a disclaimer about IE5 WD-xsl! Multiple disclaimers per page is not too much! Much stronger wording than 'The IE5 implementation is not compatible with the W3C standard.' is needed. If you don't know what the problems are with your site, someone on this list can tell you. (For starters, referring to the languages as IE5 XSLT and W3C XSLT is not correct. IE5's WD-xsl is NOT XSLT. XSLT didn't even exist when Microsoft released that.) Also, I read your disclaimer about referring to the language as XSL rather than XSLT. I'd also recommend changing this so that XSLT stays clearly defined so people can know the difference. You may have a blurb on what the difference is, but you're still using the terms 'wrong'. I'll follow that up by saying, I think whomever created that site knows the difference between the two languages. The problem is, they didn't convey their knowledge of the differences very well and thus muddied the waters. That's one guy's opinion. -Nate naustin@xxxxxxxxxx XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
