RE: [xsl] Java method call error

["Michael Kay" <michael dot h dot kay at ntlworld dot com>]

The rules for calling extension functions depend on the XSLT processor you
are using, so there's no way of answering this without knowing the
processor.

An observation: you are using the <xsl:script> element which was defined in
the XSLT 1.1 WD, but your stylesheet specifies version 1.0.
