My guess would be that
following-sibling::h3
is selecting more than one h3, and that you should have written
following-sibling::h3[1]
If that's the case it's a good example of type-checking catching your errors
- and it also illustrates that there's not much point catching the errors if
the resulting diagnostics don't pinpoint the problem.

Subject: [xsl] Type error? Too many items?
I'm developing using Altova XMLSpy 2006 Visual Studio .NET
Edition (rel
3 SP1) and my XSLT is complaining about "Type error, value
does not match a required type as specified by the matching
rules in 2.5.4 SequenceType Matching. - 'node()'", yet if I
put a watch on the XPaths "." and "../*", they are exactly
the types I'd expect (a node() and a node()* of length ~20),
if I set a breakpoint at the xsl:call-template statement.
Then, if I remove the as attributes on the xsl:with-param
elements, it tells me "Too many items" on the xsl:if. I
really can't see what's going on here.
Any suggestions greatfully received!
