Docbook XSL Stylesheet question

- Reply-to: xsl-list at lists dot mulberrytech dot com
With apologies for a "newbie" type question, though I've been reading as
much on-line as possible, in my quest to merely take an XML instance
that I created, based on DocBook (the instance validates with zero
errors and all is well-formed), and apply a DocBook XSL Stylesheet to it
for basic HTML rendering output.
I nabbed myself the latest from Sourceforge (docbook-xsl-1.51.1), and
properly inserted a local XSL stylesheet reference at the top of my XML
instance such as:
<?xml-stylesheet href = 'file:////myhomedir/docbook-
xsl-1.51.1/html/docbook.xsl' type = 'text/xsl'?>
Using the seemingly ever popular XML Spy (version 4.4), when I attempt
to apply an XSL Transformation (to HTML) based on the aforementioned
stylesheet reference, I receive an error stating that the Named template
"object.id" does not exist in the stylesheet.
I've also tried another XML editor on a UNIX platform that appears to
have a built-in XSL transformation engine based on sax (Turbo XML 2.3).
This app also has a problem attempting to transform my XML instance
based on the DocBook html/docbook.xsl.
Can anyone kindly point me in the right direction? Are these
transformation issues that need to be taken up with the respective XML
editing application publishers (I.e., XML Spy), or have I fatally missed
something in my understanding altogether?
Thanks for any help out there!
Cheers,
-Brendan
