hi,

xalan won't validate your output ; you have to specify in xslt the 
doctype on the output and pipe it to a validating parser
<xsl:output
method="xml|html|text|name"
version="string"
encoding="string"
omit-xml-declaration="yes|no"
standalone="yes|no"
*doctype-public="string"*
*doctype-system="string"*
cdata-section-elements="namelist"
indent="yes|no"
media-type="string"/>

xslt2 has features about validating the result output, but it works on 
W3C xml schemas
