there is a new problem. I have a "id()" function embedded in my

Your error is being triggered somewhere other than the code you cut
and pasted into your posting.
The error is quite explicit: somewhere you are adding an attribute
to the result tree, but at the time you are doing so you have already
added child nodes to the most recently added element. You can only
add attributes to an element before you start adding the elements children.
Nowhere in the code you posted are you adding an attribute to an
element, so the problem is elsewhere.
XSLT:
<xsl:template match="collection">
<div><p/>
<span class="character">
<xsl:apply-templates select="id(@recorder)"/>
</span>
</div>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="book">
<div>
<xsl:apply-templates select="./@author"/>,
<i><xsl:apply-templates select="./@title"/></i>.
(<xsl:apply-templates select="./@topic"/>)
My guess is that it might be there, where you are pushing the topic
attribute. How are you handling the matching of the topic
attribute? If when you catch it you are adding it to the result
tree, then that is not a valid place to do so because the last thing
added to the result tree is the left parenthesis in the text node,
not an element.
But that is just a guess since you don't have everything exposed in your post.
I hope this helps.
