[XML4Lib] Help with OAIMARC to MARCXML conversion?

[Pearson Dana]

I'm new myself and am puzzled by the display of the
output results in your attachment in my yahoo email
account.  The content is displayed and nothing else
but whitespace.  However, when I look at the page
source (Ctl+U), I see the tags.  That is,

varfield id="TYP" i1=" " i2=" "
subfield label="a"

This is also the case with an xsl list to which I
subscribe.  I always have to go to the page source to
see the markup.  

Is there a way around this?
