The complexity of your overall system is causing some confusion. It seems that your server side engine reacts to a processing instruction somewhat like the one that is more often seen used for client/browser side processing.


The examples, when processed by a standalone XSLT 1.0 processor, show that you have namespace issues to deal with.

You have put your <faqlist> element into the XHTML namespace so the templates are not matching. You can either put it back into no namespace with <faqlist xmlns=""> or convert your templates to use the namespace.

The literal result elements such as <tr>...</tr> in the stylesheet are in no namespace, you must put them into the XHTML namespace if you want them to be recognised as XHTML.

You have specified xsl:output method="html" which is wrong for XHTML output, it must be method="xml" for an XSLT 1.0 processor but I doubt if that will give you Appendix C "HTML Compatibility" output.
