FAQ Suggestion (was: When test expression)

expression of suggestion
There is a pointer to it - perhaps since this is the most FAQ ever it should
be more prominently displayed in the FAQ - such as "MSXML Users Click Here
First" or some such ridiculously obvious link.  

Or how about a Top 10 FAQ - MSXML, grouping by n elements, etc.  This might
help a little and most new people would probably be inclined to click there
first. 

I too was bitten by WD-xsl - you don't realize by using WS-xsl that it's not
XSLT, you just figure it is, and you're focusing on the syntax, not the
namespace which most beginners don't understand.  Also, unfortunately, a
great deal of MS help on XSL still references the old stuff, which confuses
anyone trying to write current code - it's all mixed together in there.  One
article says "$eq$" and the next one uses "=".  I think that MS needs to
update all their doc to be VERY SPECIFIC about whether they're referring to
WD-xsl or the real thing.
