Warren W.,
I had the same problem. I was trying to use a stylesheet on an XML
document to process it to HTML.
Everytime I opened up the XSL I got all these errors. I even tried to
use the "create schema/dtd" function in XmlSpy and it didn't work.
My purpose was to edit the XML, not the XSL.
What I did was to never open the XSL in XmlSpy. I merely clicked on
the xsl tool bar button and browsed to find the stylesheet I wanted.
Everything was fine then.
I spoke to some other people who use XmlSpy alot and they said that
they do not use this program to edit their XSL.

You need to stop XML Spy from trying to validate your stylesheet
against a
schema. I don't know the product well enough to know why it is
trying to do
this, but it's this that is causing the trouble.
After adding the namespace declaration to your stylesheet, you need
to refer
to the dt_application element as src:dt_application.

Subject: [xsl] x-schema in source xml causing no matches...
Hi list,
The xml I am trying to transform has an xmlns declaration that
has
"x-schema:" in it, as shown below. When I try to transform
it, I don't
match on any of the elements that are within that
"x-schema:..." namespace.
I tried fixing this by adding
xmlns:src="x-schema:http://www.qa.dealertrack.com/schemas/dtap
p_v2_0.xdr" to
the stylesheet, but when I do this xml spy complains that my
xslt is no
longer valid. Specifically, it tells me "This file is not valid:
Root
element of document 'filename.xslt' is either not defined in
DTD/Schema
document or part of the wrong Namespace".
See below for the xml and xslt that shows this problem:
The xml my customer sends looks something like this
(abbreviated version):
<root>
<Scorex_Header>
<Call_Number>4</Call_Number>
</Scorex_Header>
<dt_application active="yes" status="new" dtversion="2.0"
xmlns="x-schema:http://www.qa.dealertrack.com/schemas/dtapp_v2_0.xdr";>
<key_data optout="no">
<dt_lender_id>ETR</dt_lender_id>
</key_data>
</dt_application>
</root>
My XSLT looks like this (abbreviated):
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>
<xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"
indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="root">
<root>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</root>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="dt_application" name="dtApplication">
<dt_application>
<xsl:element name="active">
<xsl:value-of select="@active"/>
</xsl:element>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</dt_application>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Assume that the given dt_application section of the input xml
really is
valid according to the dtapp_v2_0.xdr...it isn't in the samples
above
because I abbreviated the xml for purposes of making the
email look cleaner.
Somehow, when the xml fragment doesn't match the xdr the xslt
engine ignores
the namespace, and my xslt works completely, but in the true
xml I receive
the dt_application section DOES match the xdr, and so my xslt
doesn't match
on any of the elements within the dt_application section.
Thanks for any help!
