RE: Problem accessing child nodes of a variable nodeset

I have an XSLT template which is passed a nodeset as a parameter:

      <xsl:param name="pageNode"/>

I imagine that, with a variable giving a starting point in the node
tree, the namespace should be picked up automatically, but 
perhaps this
isn't the case for child elements? If not, how do I set the 
namespace as
something like the following doesn't work:
      <xsl:value-of select="ws:$pageNode/title"/>

There's not much anyone can tell you without seeing how you construct
the parameter's nodeset value.  At a guess, if the "title" element is
qualified, you probably want

        <xsl:value-of select="$pageNode/ws:title"/>

The point here is that you have to specify the namespace for any
name-space-qualified item, not just for its parent.

Cheers,
