Well, the processor-version.xsl on mulberrytech.com seems to work correctly.
I think this is because if you have the old version, only the WD-xsl code
is processed, while if you have the new version, only the XSLT code is
processed.
Anyway, I finally was able to accurately detect the XSLT version using this
code:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<?xml-stylesheet href="xslProcessorCheck.xsl" type="text/xsl"?>
<html xsl:version="1.0"
xmlns:msxsl="http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-xsl"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/strict">
<head>
<title>XSLT Processor Version</title>
</head>
<body>
<script>
var version = "old";
</script>
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="false()">
<msxsl:if test=".">
<script>version = "old";</script>
</msxsl:if>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
<msxsl:choose>
<msxsl:when test=".">
</msxsl:when>
<msxsl:otherwise>
<script>version = "new";</script>
</msxsl:otherwise>
</msxsl:choose>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
<script>
var expDate = new Date("June 13, 2023");
var versionCookie = "upcast_xslprocessor=" + version + ";path=/;expires="
+ expDate.toGMTString();
document.cookie = versionCookie;
history.back();
</script>
</body>
</html>
Thanks.

Mixing WD-xsl and XSLT in the same stylesheet is like mixing COBOL and
FORTRAN in the same program. It doesn't work.
