xalan, TEI DTD

does anyone here use Xalan + Xerces on TEI documents? 

I just rediscovered why I stopped testing it:

 file:/home/rahtz/Home/tei/teixlite.dtd; Line 1171; Column 9
 XSL Error: Could not parse exercise.xml document!
 XSLT: White space is required before the attribute default in the declaration of attribute "prev" for element "table".
 Xalan: was not successful.
 XSLProcessor: done

where the offending lines are:

<!ATTLIST table
        ana IDREFS #IMPLIED
        corresp IDREFS #IMPLIED
        next IDREF #IMPLIED
        prev IDREF #IMPLIED
        id ID #IMPLIED
        n CDATA #IMPLIED
        lang IDREF #IMPLIED
        rend CDATA #IMPLIED
        rows NMTOKEN #IMPLIED
        cols NMTOKEN #IMPLIED
        TEIform CDATA "table" >


can anyone explain to me what the thing is upset about? since it's not
in validating mode, why does it concern itself with the DTD anyway?
If, incidentally, you *do* ask for validation, it tries to validate
the XSL stylesheet, which is pretty damned silly of it.
