RE: [xsl] Help in extracting namespace prefix of targetNamespace [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED]

2008-06-02 01:03:30

I have this schema header below:

<xs:schema
xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";
xmlns:bbbcore="http://www.abcde.com/Namespace/bbb/Core/V1.0";
xmlns:aaacore="http://www.abcde.com/Namespace/aaa/Core/V1.0";
xmlns:aaa="http://www.abcde.com/Namespace/aaa/Service/V1.0";
targetNamespace="http://www.abcde.com/Namespace/aaa/Service/V1.0";
elementFormDefault="qualified"
version="1.0"
xml:lang="en">

I would like to extract the namespace prefix "aaa" from xmlns:aaa="
http://www.abcde.com/Namespace/aaa/Service/V1.0"; or in short 
I would like to be able to extract the namespace prefix of 
the targetNamespace.  Thanks in advance!


With XSLT 1.0 or a 2.0 system that supports the sadly-deprecated namespace
axis, and with the xs:schema element as the context node, you can use

name(namespace::*[. = current()/@targetNamespace])

Without the namespace axis it becomes

in-scope-prefixes(.)[namespace-uri-for-prefix(.) =
current()/@targetNamespace]
