using xpath functions
Good morning,

I am just starting with XML/XSL and would like to use the function
"contains" in an XSL document

here is part of my XSL document:


<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="uri:xsl">
  <xsl:template match="/">

<HTML>
<BODY>

<font color='red'><B>SEARCH RESULT FOR : </B></font>
     <xsl:for-each select="individuals/individual">

         <xsl:if test="contains(vehicle,'Sunfire')">
            <TABLE BORDER="0" CELLPADDING="0" CELLSPACING="0">
              <TR>
                <TD VALIGN="top" COLSPAN="2">
                        <A><xsl:attribute
name="HREF">'test.html'</xsl:attribute><xsl:value-of
select="@name"/></A>

            </TD>
              </TR>
            </TABLE>

         </xsl:if>
      </xsl:for-each>

    <XML ID="individual" SRC="individuals.xml"></XML>
</BODY>
</HTML>

    </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>


I am using IE5 could that be the problem?  I have tried to put  the
following line

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

instead of:

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="uri:xsl">

If I replace the if statement by the following line it works:

<xsl:if test=vehicle[.='123 TRD Pontiac Sunfire 1995 noire'] >

SEE ATTACHED FOR XML DOCUMENT

Do I have to install something special for XPath function to work?
Am I missing a namespace?  Is my syntax wrong?

Would really appreciate some help!

Thanks!
