Here's a key to the markup:
	[page-number]: serious technical mistake
	{page-number}: minor technical mistake
	<page-number>: important language/formatting problem
	(page-number): language change or minor formatting problem
	?page-number?: reader question or request for clarification



Confirmed errors:


{51}  last bullet point on page;
the node() node test doesn't match attribute nodes or the root node.


(73)  3rd line from bottom;
it says name="calcuateArea" where it should be name="calculateArea"


{151}  sumItems template;
The parameter "runningTotal" is not necessary and the stylesheet works
equally well without the three lines of code which refer to it.

Similarly, the text referring to this variable on pages 153 and 154 seems to be superfluous.



(321)  "Optional Attributes" section;
  <xsl:output method="test">       
should be 
  <xsl:output method="text">

then, on the next line:

  "becasue"
should be
  "because"
