You can work round this, using xsl:use-when, combined with the system-property function (testing the xsl:is-schema-aware property), to write stylesheets that will use the SA functionality if it is available, and if not, degrade to basic functionality. Of course, this means more work in writing the stylesheet in the first place. -- Colin Adams Preston Lancashire
