What where is the error in my XSLT document?

FrankStallone

I am just getting started in XML and I made my first xml, dtd and xslt
file and XML spy said they were all valid and they worked.

This was the xslt doc that worked.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:styleshe et version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http ://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="html" version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"

<xsl:template match="/">
<html>
<head>
<title>p00ts f4ct0r</title>
<style type="text/css">
body,td,th {
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 12px;
color: #FFFFFF;
}
body {
background-color: #006600;
}
a:link {

text-decoration: none;
}
a:visited {
text-decoration: none;
color: #FF6600;
}
a:hover {
text-decoration: underline;
color: #FF6600;
}
a:active {
text-decoration: none;
color: #FF6600;
}
.test {
width: 300px;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<p><xsl:apply-templates select="toaddoc ument/title"/></p>
<br/>
<p><xsl:apply-templates select="toaddoc ument/author"/></p>
<br/>
<br/>
<div class="test">
<p align="justify" ><xsl:apply-templates
select="toaddoc ument/section1"/></p>
</div>
<br/>
<p><xsl:apply-templates select="toaddoc ument/section2"/></p>
<br/>
<p><xsl:apply-templates select="toaddoc ument/section3"/></p>
<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
<p><xsl:apply-templates select="toaddoc ument/score"/></p>
</body>
</html>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

It's very basic and was more or less a test.
So then I took the code from my w3c validated xhtml made site and put
it into the xslt and I have problems.

In IE it just shows a white page. Firefox shows everything but the
background is white. I can't seem to change it at all.

Here is that code, can anyone see what the problem is?

I am not going to read all your code,
but all i can say is, that it is better
to perform the xsl transformation server-side,

client side implementations are not so perfect.

Perhaps it is a problem with the AltovaXML processor - try using an
XSLT Debugger that uses more reliable industry standard XSLT processors
like Apache Xalan, MSXML 3.0, MSXML 4.0, System.XML (Microsoft .NET) or
Saxon. http://www.stylusstudio.com/xslt_debugger.html
