 XPTY0004: A sequence of more than one item is not allo
Hi All,
I am getting the following error message when trying to transform a
worldcup.xml 
using worldcup.xsl stylesheet: 

B Error on line 166

net.sf.saxon.trans.XPathException: A sequence of more
than one item is not 
allowed as the second argument of concat()

Below is the
worldcup.xsl:


<xsl:template match="/">
B  <worldcup>
B 
B B <xsl:apply-templates
select="document(concat(Spain.xml)/ns:html/ns:body/ns:div[@id='content']">
B B  B </xsl:apply-templates>
B  </worldcup>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template
match="/ns:html/ns:body/ns:div[@id='content']">
B B B  <xsl:variable
name="worldcup-team" select="//ns:p[ns:strong='World Cup 
Team:']"/>
B B B 
<xsl:apply-templates select="$ worldcup-team"/>
B B B  <xsl:if
test="empty($worldcup-team)">
B B B B B  <team>Unknown</team>
B B B  </xsl:if>
<xsl:template match="ns:p[ns:strong=''World Cup Team:']">
B  <xsl:for-each
select="ns:a">
B B B B B  <team><xsl:value-of
select="concat(./normalize-space(),./following-sibling::text()[normalize-spac
e()])"/></team>

B  </xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template
match="ns:p"/>
</xsl:stylesheet>

The snippet of worldcup.xml are as
follows:

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"B 
xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" >
<head>
B  b&b&
</head>
<body
onload="loadMapLocation(-46.1240, 149.543, 49, 1); setClockTime(2008, 01, 
19,
12, 36, 01); setInterval('updateTime()', 2000);"B  onunload="GUnload();" >
<a
shape="rect"B  name="top" />
<div id="content" >
<hr/>
<h1>World Cup
Competition</h1>
<p>
</p>
<p>
<strong>World Cup Team:</strong>
<br
clear="none" />
<a shape="rect"B 
href="http://www.abc.com/team/spain.html?aid=427231" >Spain</a> 

B (30 goals)
<br clear="none" />
<a shape="rect"B  href="
www.abc.com/team/denmark.html?aid=427231" >Denmark</a>
B (25 goals)
<br
clear="none" />
<a shape="rect"B  href="
www.abc.com/team/Germany.html?aid=427231" >Germany</a>
B (22 goals)
<br
clear="none" />
<a shape="rect"B  href="
www.abc.com/team/england.html?aid=427231" >United 
Kingdom</a>
B (15 goals)
<br clear="none" />
b&b&
</p>
<p>
</p>
</div>
</body>

The desire
output would be:

B <team>Spain(30 goals)<team>
B <team>Denmark(25
goals)<team>
B <team>Germany(22 goals)<team>
B <team>United Kingdom (15
goals)<team>


Worldcup.xsl has been successful in transforming worldcup.xml,
if it was loaded 
as a main document in the past.

I am using JDOM and Saxon
9.1 to carry out the transformation on Windows XP.

Thanks in advance,

Jack
