   supported attributes are:
   doctype-public
   doctype-system
   indent
   method
   version

   

   fixed bug with xsl:entity-ref introduced in a recent version
   Added fix for XML4J 2.0.15 (Jason Mathews)
   Added fix for XMLPrinter with respect to " inside attribute values
   (Donald Ball)
   fixed source code location of SimpleMessageObserver for proper compilation

   

   added MessageObserver interface to handle xsl:message

   added SimpleMessageObserver to print xsl:messages to a writer

   created a default MessageObserver, which will just dump messages
   to the console. The default MessageObserver can be removed passing
   XSLProcessor.DEFAULT_MESSAGE_OBSERVER, to the
   XSLProcessor.removeMessageObserver() method.

   

   fixed bug pertaining to Entity and DocumentType Nodes
   
   When using entities, XSL:P did not filter Entity and
   DocumentType nodes, from the DOM tree

   

   fixed bug with xsl:number
   with level set to any, to many counts were being generated, instead of a list
   of length one, containing one plus the number of nodes,
   a list of length NodeSet#size was being created with each node count.
   (reported by Jason Crickmer)

   fixed whitespace bug, when whitespace appears before the document element,
   under certain circumstances an <xslp:result> wrapper element would be
   insterted.(reported by Eric van der Vlist)

   

   added support for global variables that reference other global variables
   not yet declared.
   
   fixed a bug with processing global variables.
   I am storing the global variable declarations in a hashtable.
   This could cause the variables to be processed out of order, since
   hashtables are not ordered. So if one variable referenced another one,
   before it was defined, the result was "undefined".
   I fixed this, by adding in the required support for out-of-order processing,
   which I had not yet implemented.
   
   thanks a bunch to Roger for enabling me to find this bug.

   

   Fixed bug with operator precedence (submitted by Donald Ball)

   Fixed bug with SelectExpr.java (submitted by Roger Costello)

   

   patched bug caused by XML for Java 1.1.x.
   
   Attr nodes with the same name, hash to the same value. This appears
   to be fixed with IBM's 2.x version
   
   This causes the document order of attributes with the same name to be
   the same, and therefor causes improper document order sorting, and
   the same id was being generated for these nodes.
  
   Added Michel Casabianca's additions to HTMLPrinter for more HTML elements
   that shouldn't print end elements

   

   fixed bug with XML4J_1xParser and using a custom EntityResolver

   the result of a bug report submitted by Dan Potter
   
   fixed bug when the result of a predicate is a Number,
   sometimes this wouldn't use the default comparison of that Number
   with the current Node's position within the current NodeSet

   added catalog loading to some of the XML parsers
   code sent by Michel Casabianca
