Hi,
Thanks. That's very clear.
that's a bad choice of words as the namespace rec defines "default
namespace" as a specific term meaning something else.
Kindly bear these slip-ups as coming from someone who's still learning. How
many different kinds of namespaces are there in XSLT.
1. no-namespace
2. default namespace
and is there any other?
Cheers,

Please
respond to
xsl-list
First of all, by default namespace I meant no-namespace.
that's a bad choice of words as the namespace rec defines "default
namespace" as a specific term meaning something else.
does that mean both the xml file and stylesheet files are processing
elements in the no-namespace event though the root element has a
"xmlns=http://somenamespace"; albeit without a prefix. How do you explain
that the templates in my xsl matched elements that had "html:" prefixes
and
still found them. Iam referring to the xhtml2fo transformation in my
earlier mail.
I have difficulty understanding what you mean here.
If your top level element in the source has xmlns="http://somenamespace";
then the default namespace in that file is http://somenamespace and all
unprefixed elements are in that namespace.
To select elements in that namespace from XSLT1 you need to have
xmlns:something=http://somenamespace
in the stylesheet and then use
select="something:elementname"
in any Xpath expression or match pattern.
Note that the fact that the source uses a default namespace and
unprefixed elements is irrelevant, you use exactly the same eexpression
in the Xpath if your source had used prefixed element names
<differentprefix:elementname xmlns:differentprefix=http://somenamespace>
