Re: [xsl] JDK 1.4 <> 5.0 transformation compatibility

[Kai Hackemesser <kaha@xxxxxx>]

Hi there,

I experimented with that variable and it's inded working when switching 
to Xalan instead of XSLTC. So I now need to know how to make my 
stylesheet xsltc compatible. Is there a guide about the problems between 
xalan and xsltc, and is there a debugger for the transformation?

Ciao!
Kai
