Hi Roel,
I'm trying to output the following:
<HTML XMLNS:m="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML";>
<head>
</head>
</html>
That should be:
<html xmlns:m="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML";>
<head>
</head>
</html>
XML is case-sensitive, so you need the <html> and </html> to match,
and the xmlns of xmlns:m should be in lowercase. The page you quote:
as per http://www.dessci.com/en/products/mathplayer/authoring.htm.
is wrong to put xmlns in capitals.
My first, naive attempt was
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
version="1.0">
<xsl:template match="document">
<html xmlns:m="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML";>
<xsl:element name="html"
namespace="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"/>
<head>
</head>
</html>
</xsl:stylesheet>
but that gives me simply
I'm surprised that it gives you anything at all. It's not well-formed:
there's no </xsl:template> end tag for the <xsl:template> that you
have. Assuming that the stylesheet you're actually using does have an
end tag, I'm very surprised that it gives you:
<html>
<head>
</head>
</html>
What the stylesheet gives me, with Saxon 6.5.2, from an input document
with an empty <document> element, is:
<html xmlns:m="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML";>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML";></html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
</head>
</html>
which is close to what you're after, except that it has an extra
<html> element -- one that you've created with an <xsl:element>
element in your stylesheet. (The <meta> element is created
automatically because you're creating HTML, by the way.)
FWIW, I recommend that you place the namespace declaration for the
MathML namespace in the <xsl:stylesheet> start tag rather than in the
<html> start tag. That will ensure that the MathML namespace is in
scope throughout your stylesheet.
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
xmlns:m="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML";>
<xsl:template match="document">
<html>
<head>
</head>
</html>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Cheers,
Jeni
