It is arguably smaller than XSLT 1.0. If vendors produce implementations that don't conform, this will probably be because they are trying to do things like translating the language into SQL, which is never going to work 100%. There's no good reason at all for native implementations to leave features out, other than vendors thinking their users don't care. Michael Kay http://www.saxonica.com/
