Why is only the root-element transformed?

[Ben Engbers]

Hi,

This is the first time I use SAX in order to translate my XML and I
encountered the following problem.

I use the following Java-code to produce xml that should be transformed
(Based on the xml that is created by the 'createXml()' several
underlying xml-files are merged together. The resulting xml seems to be
well-formed):
When I use the xsl-file, only the root element is transformed, resulting
in the output at the end of this message (blank lines are deleted).

Why are all the other elements ignored (If I write the xml and xsl to my
file-system and use Internet Exlorer to view the xml, the xml -s
transtlated as intended)?

Produced xml:
_____________

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><interim>
<formBlock blockHeight="650.0" blockName="A01">
<pageSeparator>true</pageSeparator>
<dataItemString posY="640.0" posX="202.0" substringBegin="2"
substringEnd="4">

<dataId>1</dataId>
</dataItem>
</dataItemString>
<dataItemString posY="640.0" posX="257.0" substringBegin="2"
substringEnd="4">

</dataItemString>
<dataItemString posY="640.0" posX="312.0">

<dataId>81</dataId>
</dataItem>
</dataItemString>

</formBlock>
<formClassName>eGDIA01</formClassName>
</interim>

xsl
