I find the lack of document() support to be a fairly big obstacle myself. But then (at least in the work I do with XSLT) I guess I also find lack of support for turning XSLT 1.0 result-tree fragments into real node sets to be a equally big obstacle. Opera 9.02 does do the right thing there by supporting exslt:node-set(). > If you want to check out the dojo implementation, you would need to get > the trunk from SVN (or wait till .4 comes out, which should be soon).

But I do know for certain that any test case which relies on document() is currently going to fail in Opera. > I will let the dojo folks know about the document() limitation. Thanks. And as soon as support for document() is finally added, I can guarantee you that Opera will be announcing it widely to the developer community. --Mike
