Just a quick reminder that you can usually get more detail about a Xalan 
error by "unwrapping" the TransformationException; the easiest way to do 
that is to call printStackTrace() on the exception object. If you're using 
Process.main(), specifying the -EDUMP option will cause this to happen.

Haven't had a chance to try the Yves' stylesheet -- I'm up to my elbows in 
 other portions of Xalan right now -- but if you really think it's a Xalan 
bug, the best place to get assistance would be on the Xalan mailing lists 
(see         http://xml.apache.org/mail.html for subscription 
instructions) or to check Xalan's entries in the tracking database 
(http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/). Note that the first response you'll 
probably get from the Xalan development team -- assuming there isn't a 
problem in your stylesheet -- is likely to be "Have you tried the latest 
Xalan code from CVS", since development is continuous and any given glitch 
may already have been solved.
