You bind an explicit prefix to the namespace URI in the stylesheet
xmlns:p="namespace"
and use this prefix in the path expression
./p:document
Alternatively in XSLT 2.0 you can define default-xpath-namespace="namespace"
and this then applies to all unprefixed names in path expressions.

Subject: [xsl] How to select nodes with explicitly set
default namespace
Hi,
I don't know how to select a node with the default namespace if this
namespace is explicitly set in the xml document. If I use any
other name
for the namespace something like namespace::document would match the
elemet <namespace:document> .... </namespace:document>
and if I remove the default namespace definition from the xml
document
the match="document" does also work, but if I set the default
namespace
it doesn't.
It doesn't match eighter if I use '':document or "":document
or ::document
Is there any special XPath function I have to use this?
I use Saxon 7.9.1 and XSL 2.0.
Regards,
Olaf Meske
