Re: TopXML Tutorial on XSLT and XPath: msg#00015

It actually got a little worse, or I discovered another bug, when I
changed the xml:stylesheet  to xml-stylesheet.

This is the namespace declaration in the samples given at TopXML
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-xsl";

However, within the tutorial, on the same page just a little lower
down, the author correctly states that this is a previous standard and
no longer works.  (As I found to be true.)  The correct namespace is
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"; version="1.0"

So, with the stylesheet declaration changed in the xml file and the
namespace declaration changed in the stylesheet file, all is well with
FF and IE.

Thanks for your insight, and I sent a link to this conversation to the
tutorial author.


Who added a link to that stuff to devmo? I suggest removing it, the stuff I heard so far doesn't make me think we should send people there to learn XSLT.

Let me see if I've got this straight:

It doesn't work in FF because FF see's the error but it works in IE
because IE is blind to the error.
More or less.  More precisely, as I understand it, IE implemented an early draft
of a spec, and didn't fix their code when the spec changed before being 
finalized.
