RE: Namespaces

Yes, there are many features in XSLT not supported in IE5 XSL.  IE5 was
based on a subset the Dec '98 XSL Working Draft, and thus does not include
many of the features that were still in flux at that time, as well as those
that were subsequently added to XSLT.  Additionally, some features changed
syntax.  The namespace change also makes it impossible for a single document
to function as both an IE5 XSL stylesheet and an XSLT one.

There are very few features that were supported in IE5 XSL that do not have
equivalents in XSLT.  I think a simpler approach is to determine which
features ARE shared between the languages than to determine which ones
aren't.  The list of supported elements in IE5 is available at
http://msdn.microsoft.com/isapi/msdnlib2.idc?theURL=/library/psdk/xmlsdk/xsl
