xsl error

Apr 9th, 2009
Having an issue where both my xml and xsl are parsing fine (when viewed in firefox) but when combined together, throw an error:
Error loading stylesheet: Parsing an XSLT stylesheet failed.
(I noticed a suimilar post but was reccommended by the system to start a new thread, as it was a year old)
Betting it's something simple I can kick myself for...
my xml (trimmed):
xml Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
  1. <?xml version="1.0"?>
  2. <?xml-stylesheet href="reporting.xsl" type="text/xsl"?>
  3. <Report>
  4. 	<Overview>in progress</Overview>
  5. 	<Header>
  6. 		<Field>

my xsl:

OK, figured it out
1) not an error as such, but the result would have put the header rows before the table, so restructured the xml and xsl to put teh header inside the result xml and html table.
2) the actual error: something dumb:
<xsl:for-each match='Field'> should be:
<xsl:for-each select='Field'> firefox (at least) doesnt see that as an error (and I guess it's not exactly an error, but.. it is.)
