In the Java API for the Calendar class, the field names such as YEAR are actually symbolic constants defined as static properties of the Calendar object. Since you can't access properties of Java objects from XSLT (only methods), you will have to discover the integer values of these constants and supply these instead. For example, you might find that Calendar.YEAR is actually 7. To find out the numeric values of the constants, write a Java application that prints them out!
