RE: XSL & CDATA Processing

Well, I am running this in a Java Application and
using the built in processor in JDK1.4.2 . 

TransformerFactory factory =
TransformerFactory.newInstance();
Templates template =               
factory.newTemplates(new StreamSource(                
       new FileInputStream(DUPLICATES_XSL)));
Transformer xformer = template.newTransformer();
Source source = new DOMSource(tempDocument);
DocumentBuilder builder=
DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance().newDocumentBuilder();
Document doc = builder.newDocument();
Result result = new DOMResult(doc);
xformer.transform(source, result);

I have tried using Saxon (again from within the Java
Application) and that generates a different warning
message

Warning: at copy on line 12 of :
  Cannot write an attribute node when no element start
tag is open

Also, the output does not contain any of the
attributes for the Text tag.

<Test>
  <Text>
    <Text.Description>Table File</Text.Description>
    <Text.LongDescription>Table
File</Text.LongDescription>
  </Text>
</Test>
