RE: Problems with MathML stylesheet example

David,

Right. Since this was explained in the documentation, I noted
that this was "expected behavior".

That's exactly what I had done. Which, as I indicated in my
note, was still giving me errors.

The problem in my case was that copying the contents of the
XSL files from an IE window and pasting them into text files
on my webserver was mangling them in some obvious ways (easily
remedied with a text editor) and some less obvious ways (which
I had missed). This was silliness on my part, and the problem
would have been obvious if I'd had some method other than asking
IE to render my XML examples for validating the XSL docs.

All I needed to do was download the stylesheets as files instead
of asking my browser to render them, and all my problems went
away.

Cheers,

    Peter
