Problem with Transformer

Question

Hello!
I have written an XSLT-Transformation-Script that works fine in my XML editor.
When I transform a XML-file with the javax.xml.transform.Transformer I get a different output.
All generated Elements, that schould have text and values in it, are empty.
Here an example of my code:
<error>
<name/>
<id/>
<element>ref_section</element>
<parent>model</parent>
<errormessage>Refenenced section <xsl:value-of select="$ref"/> does not exist.</errormessage>
</error>
Example of the resulting XML-file:
<error>
     <name/>
     <id/>
     <element>ref_section</element>
     <parent>model</parent>
     <errormessage>Refenenced section 4711 does not exist.</errormessage>
</error>
The same element generated by the Java-Transform-Class:
<error>
<name>
</name>
<id>
</id>
<element>
ref_section
</element>
<parent>
model
</parent>
<errormessage>
</errormessage>
</error>
Thanx for help.

Looks like your code is doing a default XSL transformation and not applying your XSL. There must be something wrong with your code.
Posting your code might lead to a more helpful answer.
