Historical errata for XSLT Jumpstarter

PDF PgPaper PgTypeDescriptionFixed onComments
121ERROR

Stylesheet doesn’t produce the intended output. The last para is printed in a “section1”.

157ERROR

Figure 44 - “test” compares ref_id an instance_id values, however, they will only ever match with additional condition such as “contains” or substring, because the instance_id values are prefixed with language. For example ref_id=“01” and instance_id=“en-01”.

172ERROR

XML-file on page 172 is not well-formed and therefore won’t be processed by any XSLT-processor. It’s a strange idea (and also wrong) to mix XML and XSLT in one single file. Omit the starting and end tags of all XSLT tags within the -elements and the example will work properly.

38ERROR

The book says:
java -jar C:/Saxon/Saxon6-5-5/saxon.jar -o output.xml accounts.xml streamline.xsl

That doesn’t work on my machine. Looking at the Saxon site the -o can’t be -o[space]filename, but -o:filename.

17ERROR

tag is not understood in WMHelp XmlPad

No idea at that moment in learning curve from book what to write there.
Result is whole record is displayed, not the postalcode when i remove the tag
