I just tried my hand at using XSLT to extract some information from an XML file that I have been given, and I am running into a (potentially stupid) problem. I continue to simplify my XSLT query hoping to get to a point where I see some expected output, and I am still having difficulties with the files listed below. I am using the latest stable version of Xalan (1.9.0) on a Linux box. The problem is that when I apply Xalan to the files below, I get N blank lines of output, where N is the number of lines in the original XML file. I would be less confused if N was the number of presentation elements in my file...but that's not even the case. I've been banging my head against this one for a little while, and I'm sure there are people on this list who have a quick answer. Thanks in advance for any assistance. --Mike Beattie ..........
