Recommended version of Saxon for DocBook XSL stylesheets is Saxon 6.5.x.
DocBook stylesheets are written in XSLT 1.0 with lots of EXSLT and
vendor dependant extensions. These extensions are not always available
in Saxon7 as similar functionality is provided by XSLT 2.0.
Yes, I know and I had no trouble running the stylesheet in Saxon 6.5.2.
But this doesn't help me get it running in Saxon 7.
The Doctype chunker.xsl stylesheet is using saxon:output, exsl:document,
etc. for their ability to dynamically specify the output parameters with
attribute value templates.
There seem to be two main differences between these extension
instructions and xsl:output/xsl:result-document provided by XSLT 2.0:
1. xsl:output may only appear at the top level.
2. (Serious problem) none of xsl:output's attributes are specified in
the syntax summary as allowing attribute value templates.
So what does one use in 2.0 when it is desired to dynamically calculate
values of, e.g., doctype-system, media-type, etc.?
