read-first - Re: [xsl] servlet returns well-formed XML but document()? doesn't like it

The URL (http://64.173.57.75:8080/master/ReturnPage?pageid=p0000000001)
won't work for you because you will need to log in and select the particular
context before you can access the page.  So if you still want to help,
please perform the following steps (nothing else will work, hopefully... :)
to get into the app:

1. go to http://64.173.57.75:8080/master/
2. use "boo" as a password
3. select Koberg Consulting
-- this will set the context to be edited
4. after that, then access
http://64.173.57.75:8080/master/ReturnPage?pageid=p0000000001
-- mac os x recieves a correct XML page if you do this which I figured out
after I wrote the note below.
