can someone tell me what's wrong with this xslt file?

[willms_jay]

can anyone identify what's wrong with the XSLT file. It passes the well formed check in XMLSPY, but bunks out on this line when I validate :

<xsl:apply-templates select="cancore:general" />

saying 'unexpected child element'

any clues?

here's the xsl file :
(note that I am not concerned with the transformation here, just the structure of the xslt documnet)

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:cancore="http://www.imsglobal.org/xsd/imsmd_v1p2" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0">
<xsl:output method = "xml" indent = "yes"/>

<!-- apply the templates at the root level -->
<xsl:template match="cancore:lom">
	<metadata>
		<!-- make the brace for the content -->

      <oai_dc:dc xmlns:oai_dc="http://www.openarchives.org/OAI/2.0/oai_dc/" 
         xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/" 
         xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" 
         xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.openarchives.org/OAI/2.0/oai_dc/ http://www.openarchives.org/OAI/2.0/oai_dc.xsd">

				<xsl:apply-templates select="cancore:general" /> 
				<xsl:apply-templates select="cancore:lifecycle/cancore:contribute" /> 
				
		</oai_dc:dc>
	</metadata>
</xsl:template>

      <!-- handle all the important information within the general tag!  -->
	<xsl:template match="cancore:general">
		<!-- title is a required field, no test required here -->
		<dc:title>
			 <xsl:apply-templates select="cancore:title/cancore:langstring" />	
	 	</dc:title>
		<dc:description>
			 <xsl:apply-templates select="cancore:description/cancore:langstring" />	
	 	</dc:description> 
	 </xsl:template>

      <!-- handle all the important information within the lifecycle/role tag!  -->
	<xsl:template match="cancore:lifecycle/cancore:contribute">
		<!-- Get the creator tag information , it is optional so test -->
		<xsl:if test="cancore:role/cancore:value/cancore:langstring = 'Author'">
			<dc:creator>
			 	<xsl:value-of select="cancore:centity/cancore:vcard" />				
			</dc:creator>			 
		</xsl:if>

		<!-- Get the publisher tag information, it is optional so test -->
		<!-- Get the publisher tag information, it is optional so test -->		
		<xsl:if test="cancore:role/cancore:value/cancore:langstring = 'Publisher'">
			<dc:publisher>
			 	<xsl:value-of select="cancore:centity/cancore:vcard" />				
			</dc:publisher>			 
			<dc:date>
			 	<xsl:value-of select="cancore:date" />
			</dc:date>
		</xsl:if>		
	
      </xsl:template>



</xsl:stylesheet>

you need to post it somewhere,you can find people who have used these propritery tags....

the best place I can recomend is here.

http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list/index.html

The above is probably as good as it can get for xsl/xslt/xpath,xsl-fo support.
