I had a similar problem using IE5.  When I searched MSDN site (just the XML
portion) with argument "position()",
I got a hit on a page describing a method called "context()".
When I replaced "position()" with "context()" and made a few other minor
modifications to match the example on the MSDN page, things started
working.
I think this means that IE5 doesn't implement "position()", and offers
"context()" instead.  I don't like it, because it is going in the wrong
direction in the long run.
But maybe it will help.
