Hi Ray,
I cut and pasted the example in "Sidebar example"
(under "A sidebar as a side float") from my book into a DocBook 5 test file and
processed with Saxon 6.5.5, xsl-1.70.1, and XEP 4.6. The sidebar example
worked for me. I wasn't in Oxygen, and I wasn't using a customization
layer, though. Did you include the processing instruction to designate a
left float?
Sidebar floats have not been implemented in HTML
yet. In the HTML stylesheet, only formal and informalobjects (figure,
informalfigure, etc.) with a floatstyle="left|right" are
implemented.

Unable to successfully implement
sidebar floats for nested mediaobject or para elements; have a copy of Bob
Stayton’s book; example does not result in an image or text slide float in
either HTML or PDF transformations.
