Here's an HTML document:

  <html>
  <head>
  <script>
      var proc = new XSLTProcessor();
      var xslt = document.implementation.createDocument("", "", null);
      xslt.innerHTML = "<?xml version='1.0'?>"
      + "<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl='http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform' version='1.0>"
          + "<xsl:output method='html'/>"
          + "<xsl:template match='/test'><p>goodbye!</p></xsl:template>"
          + "</xsl:stylesheet>";
      proc.importStylesheet(xslt);

      var src_doc = document.implementation.createDocument("", "", null);
      src_doc.innerHTML = "<?xml version='1.0'?>"
      + "<test>"
          + "<item><title>hello!</title><link>someplace</link></item>"
          + "<item><title>hello to you too!</title><link>otherplace</link></item>"
          + "</test>";
      var result = proc.transformToFragment(src_doc, document);
      alert(result);
      alert(result.innerHTML);
  </script>
  </head>
  <body>
      <h1>hello</h1>
  </body>
  </html>


result.innerHTML is null and looking at result it looks like it has no
children, where it should have one: a text node saying "goodbye".

Anybody know why this is?
