It is recommended that you set version="2.0" on a stylesheet that is making
use of new 2.0 features, and leave it at "1.0" otherwise.
An XSLT 2.0 processor will handle a stylesheet that specifies "1.0" slighly
differently from one that specifies "2.0" - it will invoke backwards
compatibility mode which gives weaker type checking. However a 2.0 processor
won't prevent a stylesheet using 2.0 features just because it specifies 1.0
in the header.

Subject: [xsl] version and URI for XSLT 2.0
I am in the process of converting my stylesheets over to XSLT
2.0 using
Saxon to process them. I noticed that although I neglected to update
the stylesheet element attributes it still works with the new 2.0
features. That is, it still looks like:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>
...
</xsl:stylesheet>
What should version= and xmlns:xsl= be set to?
Thanks,
Barry
