Re: [xsl] function text()

Hello Manfred!

You probably forgot about whitespace only text nodes in your xml 
document. msxml by default strips all of them, but xslt spec says they 
must be preserved - this is why the results are so different. Try 
<xsl:strip-space elements="*"/> at the top level of your stylesheet.
