Re: [xsl] Xalan Transformation Error

[Wendell Piez <wapiez at mulberrytech dot com>]

Scott,

Sad to say, although what you have may run in a (particular) browser, this 
doesn't mean it runs in an XSLT processor. That's because what you have 
isn't XSLT. It's written in an obsolete, proprietary language that was 
originally created to resemble a now-defunct draft of something that 
eventually became XSLT.

Check out the MSXML FAQ at http://www.netcrucible.com/xslt/msxml-faq.htm. 
Note that even there, Joshua's splash page alerting you to the problem was 
written 18 months ago.

You want to upgrade your code to the standard language before it's fair to 
expect it to be portable.

Good luck,
Wendell
