You are generating html so you shouldn't have any namespace declared for

There is no such namespace defined for HTML. Some early drafts of XSLT 1
did suggest this rather dubious use, but it was removed in favour of the
<xsl:output method="html"/>
instruction before XSLT1 was finalised as a Recommendation.
Thanks, I have now corrected that. I appreciate these tips.
Also for the HTML output method, you should never put
in <META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type"
CONTENT="text/html;" CHARSET="UTF-8"/>
as the system will add its own meta element specifying the encoding it
used, so at best this will be superflous but at worst it will be
incorrect as the encoding specified in xsl:output is only a hint and a
system may output in some other encoding.
Once again, thank you. I will commit these changes to our cvs tree :)
