Sorry, again! I really need to either memorize IDs of the XSLT spec anchors, or get rid of the local spec copy. Sorry again. That should naturally be <http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt#literal-result-element>

You are. xsl:copy just makes a copy of the current node, see <http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt#copying> (hah, got the link right :) For xsl:for-each and xsl:apply-templates are used for selecting nodes, i.e. processing them.

I don't remember what you data looked like, but even if the cell is blank, the empty element's still there, right? Or how does the export keep the table together, i.e. properly aligned?
