different results with internet explorer vs. msxsl.exe

From: bd@------.--- (---- -----)
To: NULL
Date: 8/5/2004 11:41:00 AM
given this xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?> 
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="vsimp.xsl"?> 
<document>
<s3>
data
</s3>
</document>

and this xsl

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template match="/">
<html>
      <body><xsl:apply-templates/> </body>
</html>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="s3">
            position: <xsl:value-of select="position()"/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>


I get the following from msxsl.exe

prompt>msxsl vvsimp.xml -pi
 < h t m l >
 < b o d y >

                         p o s i t i o n :   2
 < / b o d y >
 < / h t m l >

but if I open vvsimp.xml with IE the page contains 

position: 1

(which is correct)

Given that I have up to date versions of the msxml parser (AFAIK) and
that msxsl.exe is advertised to be a shell around the same XML engine
that IE uses I see these results as a real head-scratcher.

(Boiled down from the more complex transformation where I originally
experience this.)

I hope its me. Any ideas or comments are welcome.

Thanks
