Re: Specifying the XHTML XMLNS

Thanks for your message David. See my response below:


2005/9/28, David Carlisle <davidc(_at_)nag(_dot_)co(_dot_)uk>:

If I specify it using xsl:attribute I finally get the xmlns
attribute specified in many nodes instead of only in the <html> one.

that would be a bug in your XSLT processor. If you specify an attribute
name xmlns or starting with xmlnns: then you are supposed to get a fatal
error and no output at all.

I am using the XML API that comes with .NET2003.


Your stylesheet has:
    <html>

which means html in no-namespace, if you want that (and all other
unprefixed literal result eleemnts) to mean elements in xhtml then
you need them to be in the xhtml namespace so add
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";
to your xsl:stylesheet element. Note that this is essentially just an

If I add this to my stylesheet, I get a correct <html> node but I get
these kind of things on the rest of the result:

...
<link rel="stylesheet" href="./css/login.css" type="text/css" xmlns=""></link>
...
<script type="text/javascript" src="./js/login.js" xmlns=""></script>
...
<h2 xmlns="">Test</h2>
...

Which I suppose is something not desired and avoidable...?


issue about how xml namespaces are specified in teh xml namespace rec,
Its not really a special xslt rule.

unrelated but

   <html>
      <xsl:attribute name="xml:lang">es</xsl:attribute>

is a lot more verbose than you need, why not juse

   <html xml:lang="es">

Yes, thanks for the tip.
