Hi Mike,

I added the s: and the correct namespace to the stylesheet.
xmlns:s="http://www.loc.gov/MARC21/slim";
<xsl:apply-templates select="//s:leader" mode="get_records"/>
Everything ran fine.
I thought the namespace was 'marc:'.
No, "marc" may be the prefix assigned the namespace in some document; but
namespace prefixes can be switched, as long as they resolve to the same URI.
This is a feature: the whole idea of namespaces is to allow us to avoid
name collisions. If "marc" were wired to a tagset for MARC (the cataloging
rules) what would MARC the Maryland commuter rail system do?
Cheers,
Wendell
