Thanks for your reply.

But I am still not convinced by this sentence in Section "19 Final Result
Trees" (please read my comment #0):

"A final result tree can be created explicitly, by evaluating an
xsl:result-document instruction. A final result tree is also created implicitly
if no xsl:result-document instruction is evaluated, or if the result of
evaluating the initial template is a non-empty sequence."

I still have a feeling, it should have word "and" instead of "or" (please read
my comment #0).

The 2nd sentence above says, "A final result tree is also created implicitly
if no xsl:result-document instruction is evaluated, or if the result of
evaluating the initial template is a non-empty sequence." 

The word "or" means, either 1st part of sentence is true, or the 2nd. If "or"
holds correct, then I find 1st part of "or" to be wrong. How could a final
result tree be created implicitly if no xsl:result-document instruction is
evaluated ?
