Ron Coleman's used the XSL file to format a collection of MARC-XML
records.  Unfortunately, that surfaced a bug that expected the record to
be the top level in the file.  I fixed that in the XSL, and made the XML
files collections instead of individual records, so that the

Maybe this will help.  Here are some pointers to an updated set of files
(still far from ready for prime-time, but at least the Japanese record
displays).  The two .xml test file URLs seem to work, at least in IE.

http://outgoing.typepad.com/code/marcdisplay/compact.20060328.tgz the
compressed tarball of the following files:

http://outgoing.typepad.com/code/marcdisplay/compact.xsl the XSL file

http://outgoing.typepad.com/code/marcdisplay/compact.css the CSS file

http://outgoing.typepad.com/code/marcdisplay/mudlumps.xml Simple test
file

http://outgoing.typepad.com/code/marcdisplay/mudlumps.jpn.xml Test for
880 fields

I rearranged the XSL to accommodate bringing in the linked vernacular
880 fields as needed.  This pushes some of the formatting selection into
the CSS file by just generating CSS classes based on the MARC field tag.

I'd like to have a look and help out, but could you post it non-tar'ed
and possibly non-zip'ed? My gmail is barfing, and WinZip coughs and
splutters. :)
