Subject: [xsl] Confusing namespaces and xslt
I have a newbie question. I've gone round and around on this issue and
haven't been able to make any headway on my own. I suspect I'm missing
some basic understanding of how to use XPath expressions and how
namespaces are used. so I apologize in advance if the question is a
stupid one.
I need to handle the following xml and generate new xml that makes
some changes to some of the attributes;
[...]
In your XSL, on the stylesheet or transform element declare the namespace with
whatever prefix you desire. That will allow you to use that prefix in your
XPath statements. So:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:client="http://somecompany.com/box/client";
xmlns:box="http://somecompany.com/box";
Now in your XPath:
/client:box-client/client:network/box:components
