Matching XML elements for HTML output

First of all, let me apologize for the length of the message, but it?s the
only way I came up with since attachments aren?t allowed in this list.

I?ve been working on a XSL document in order to perform a transformation
from an OAI-PMH generated XML output, which comes in a Dublin Core element
set format, to HTML.
I?m having trouble filtering some of the elements that I want to be hidden
in the resulting HTML. Here?s an example of a resulting XML document:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="example.xsl"?> <OAI-PMH
xmlns="http://www.openarchives.org/OAI/2.0/";
        xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
        xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.openarchives.org/OAI/2.0/
            http://www.openarchives.org/OAI/2.0/OAI-PMH.xsd";>
    <responseDate>2004-11-15T13:21:38Z</responseDate>
    <request verb="ListRecords"
metadataPrefix="oai_dc">http://resgenchem15.chem.wisc.edu/spt/SPT--OAI.php</
request>
    <ListRecords>
        <record>
            <header>
                <identifier>oai:jce.divched.org:jcedlib-58</identifier>
                <datestamp>2003-06-03</datestamp>
            </header>
            <metadata>
                <oai_dc:dc

    </ListRecords>
</OAI-PMH>

So far, I?ve managed to match all the elements belonging to the ?dc?
namespace, but when I try to match elements such as <request>, <identifier>
of <datestamp> it doesn?t seem to work. Here?s an example of how I?m trying
to match the elements:

            <xsl:template match="dc:language"/>     WORKS

            <xsl:template match="datestamp"/>        FAILS

I?ve tried several solutions for the matching with the same result. Can
anyone tell me how can I get it to work?

Thanks in advance,
Rolando
