RE: [xsl] Xalan Transformation Error

[Wendell Piez <wapiez@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Scott,

I ran your stylesheet on itself in Saxon and Xalan as well as in MSXML3SP2 
(which does both XSLT and the obsolete WD-XSL language). Interestingly 
enough, it ran in all three, when the namespace declaration was given as 
http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform.

This is good, since it suggests your code actually manages to avoid the 
traps of the older WD-XSL. On the other hand, it means I'm not reproducing 
your bug.

I can say, however, that you should use the current namespace, forget about 
the WD-XSL namespace, and debug accordingly. As to your bug, the stylesheet 
runs standalone, so I imagine it's something in the Javascript. (You didn't 
say whether you were getting the error on running the transform, or on 
loading and running the results in the browser. The best way to debug the 
Javascript as such is to run the transform and debug the resulting HTML as 
if the XSLT has nothing to do with it, which is true; then fold your 
corrected code back into the transform.)

Sorry I can't be more help.

Cheers,
Wendell
