Thank you for the suggestion, but it still gives me trouble -- I must be
doing something else wrong. I have tried with numerous xalan versions --
"some old xalan with no version", the xalan distributed with jdk 1.4.1,
and with xalan 2.5.0 -- the first two complain with the message
javax.xml.transform.TransformerException: Extra illegal tokens: 'Article'.
Xalan 2.5.0 says "javax.xml.transform.TransformerException: A node test
that matches either NCName:* or QName was expected."
Which XSLT engine did you get it to work with? Xalan/version?
Cheers,
Kim

works for me.

Subject: [xsl] Xalan won't accept QName in XPath node test
I hope one of you guys have seen before and can give me a hint as to
what I am doing wrong. I cannot find anything pointing me to a solution
either in this mailing list or elsewher.
Simple problem : Match an element in a default namespace from an XSL
stylesheet.
Wrong solution: (My files are inlined below)
Declaring the same namespace as 'art' within the stylesheet and using
the xpath expression "art:Article" to match <Article/> elements.
That does not work. XmlSpy / IE6 has no trouble stylesheeting the same
files.
Am I doing something wrong or is Xalan doing something wrong?
Any help and hints greatly apprecieated.
*Source document*
<Article xmlns="/type/Article.xsd">
<title>foo</title>
<body>bar</body>
</Article>
*Stylesheet*
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
xmlns:art="/type/Article.xsd"
version="1.0">
<xsl:template match="art:Article">Matched!</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
