xsl:namespace-alias applies only to literal result elements. So if you write
<x:template...>
the namespace will be changed, but if you write
<xsl:element name="x:template"
then it won't.
So you should either change
<xsl:element name="x:template">
to
<xsl:element name="xsl:template">
or you should change
<xsl:element name="x:template">
<xsl:attribute name="match">
<xsl:value-of select="person"/>
</xsl:attribute>
<BODY>
This is the body text
<x:apply-templates>
<x:with-param name="path" select="person"/>
</x:apply-templates>
</BODY>
</xsl:element>
to
<x:template match="{person}">
<BODY>
This is the body text
<x:apply-templates>
<x:with-param name="path" select="person"/>
</x:apply-templates>
</BODY>
</x:template>

Subject: [xsl] namespace-alias problem
Hi,
Iam using a stylesheet to generate another stylesheet and
having some
problems like the processor not recognising the aliased
namespace (x:) the
2nd time around. The following are my xml and and input and output
stylesheet snippets. The snippets are quite large but I am
not sure how to
make these smaller than this.
Regards,
Omprakash.V
school.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<school version="1.0">
<student name="person"/>
<student name="name" type="ps:data"/>
</school>
student.xsl
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
xmlns:x
="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/TransformAlias";
exclude-result-prefixes="x"
version="1.0">
<xsl:namespace-alias stylesheet-prefix="x" result-prefix="xsl"/>
<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes" encoding="iso-8859-1"/>
<xsl:template match="school">
<x:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl
="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>
<x:strip-space elements="*"/>
<xsl:element name="x:template">
<xsl:attribute name="match">
<xsl:value-of select="person"/>
</xsl:attribute>
<BODY>
This is the body text
<x:apply-templates>
<x:with-param name="path" select="person"/>
</x:apply-templates>
</BODY>
</xsl:element>
<xsl:apply-templates />
</x:stylesheet>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="student">
<xsl:if test="not(@name='person')">
<xsl:element name="x:template">
<xsl:attribute name="match">
<xsl:value-of select="@name" />
</xsl:attribute>
<a href="#">This is a student <x:value-of select="@name"/></a>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
And the resulting stylesheet is
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<x:stylesheet xmlns:x="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
version="1.0">
<x:strip-space elements="*"/>
<x:template
xmlns:x="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/TransformAlias"; match="">
<BODY>
This is the body text
<x:apply-templates>
<x:with-param name="" select=""/>
</x:apply-templates>
</BODY>
</x:template>
<x:template xmlns:x="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/TransformAlias";
match="name">
<a href="#">This is a student <x:value-of
xmlns:x="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"; select="@name"/>
</a>
</x:template>
</x:stylesheet>
