Re: Problem with example from faq

I found the prefix for the xsl namespace missing, xsl:apply-templates
was xsl:apply-template, and "ancestor::*" was "acestor::*".

When I run the modified stylesheet:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!--
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/XSL/Transform/1.0">
-->
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">

<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:apply-templates mode="start" select="//z"/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template mode="start" match="*">
<xsl:text>&#xa;Document order:</xsl:text>
<xsl:for-each select="ancestor::*">
       <xsl:text>&#xa;Element:</xsl:text>
</xsl:for-each>
<xsl:text>&#xa;&#xa;Axis Order:</xsl:text>
<xsl:apply-templates select="ancestor::*[1]"/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="*">
<xsl:text>&#xa;Element:</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="name()"/>
<xsl:apply-templates select="ancestor::*[1]"/>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

...it seems to work fine (at least from my quick glance).  This is with
LotusXSL 0.18.5.  You should have seen some output with the namespace
broken, or good error messages.
