DHTML Scrollbar failing in XSLT

I'm trying to implement a DHTML Scrollbar, but it seems that it doesn't seem to function properly. I think this is to do with the javascript in my XSLT. I would appreciate any help with this as I have had no problem with other javascript coding which I used from dynamicdrive.com.

I wont add the code for the javascript as there are three seperate js files (each one is pretty long), but to view these js files just go to and see how his example works.

Here is my XSLT code, I have highlighted his code I used:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl=" version="1.0">
<xsl:template match="/">
<html>
<head>
<title>Solana Gallery - Contemporary russian art</title>
<link href="gallery.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="thumbnailviewer2.js" defer="defer">

/***********************************************

* This notice must stay intact for legal use
***********************************************/

</script>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="gallerystyle.css" />

<!-- Do not edit IE conditional style below -->
<!--[if gte IE 5.5]>
<style type="text/css">
#motioncontainer {
width:expression(Math.min(this.offsetWidth, maxwidth)+'px');
}
</style>
<![endif]-->
<!-- End Conditional Style -->

<script type="text/javascript" src="motiongallery.js">

What is the problem you find? I don't think those highlighted cause problem? Instead I can see if your xml source has a root other than "artist", such as
[tt]
<artists>
<artist>
<!-- etc etc -->
</artist>
<artist>
<!-- etc etc -->
</artist>
<!-- etc etc -->
</artists>
[/tt]
Then you'll find you lost all the data in the process. You have then to do these.

[1]
><xsl:for-each select="artist">
Either this
[tt]<xsl:for-each select="[red]//[/red]artist">[/tt]
or
[tt]<xsl:for-each select="[red]artists/[/red]artist">[/tt]
[2]
><xsl:for-each select="artist/art">
Either this
[tt]<xsl:for-each select="[red]//[/red]artist/art">[/tt]
or
[tt]<xsl:for-each select="[red]artists/artist[/red]/art">[/tt]

and this is my html that uses javascript to load the xml and xslt.

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "<html xmlns="

<head>
<title>Solana Gallery - Contemporary russian art</title>

<script type="text/javascript">
var xmlDoc;

{
// code for IE
if (window.ActiveXObject)
{
// Load XML
var xml = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM");
xml.async=false;
xml.load("piaskowski-d.xml");

// Load XSL
var xsl = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM");
xsl.async = false;
xsl.load("artist.xsl");

// Transform
document.write(xml.transformNode(xsl))
}
// code for Mozilla, Firefox, Opera, etc.
else if (document.implementation && document.implementation.createDocument)
{
xmlDoc=document.implementation.createDocument("","",null);
xmlDoc.async=false;
xmlDoc.load("piaskowski-d.xml");
var xsltProc = new XSLTProcessor();
var xsl=document.implementation.createDocument("","",null);
xsl.async=false;
xsl.load("artist.xsl");
xsltProc.importStylesheet(xsl);
xmlDoc=xsltProc.transformToDocument(xmlDoc);
var serializer=new XMLSerializer();
document.write(serializer.serializeToString(xmlDoc));
}
else
{
alert('Your browser cannot handle this script');
}
}

</script>
</head>

<body>
</body>
</html>

But I still think this is to do with the highlighted coding. P.s Thanks again for your help on the Firefox issue I posted before.

Without reading all the followup, if you have only artist as root, why is <xsl:for-each select="artist"> for?

Ok I have removed <xsl:for-each select="artist"> which was redundant and changed <xsl:value-of select="artistname"/> to <xsl:value-of select="artist/artistname"/>.
Thanks for spotting that one, but the issue I'm facing is that the dhtml scrollbar is not displaying at all and it shows just a standard browser scrollbar, is this an issue with the javascript in my xslt as using the dhtml scrollbar coding in a standard html work fine, So Im thinking this is a javascript/xslt issue?

Figured out the problem it was the javascript in the header, just moved it to an external javascript file and called it from the xslt header.
