RE: [xsl] XML to XML Namespace conversion

2008-12-08 10:47:57
I started using the <xsl:element> command 
some time ago because i thought it was a more proper way of 
writing

This belief seems to be surprisingly common - I've no idea where it comes
from, other than some kind of superstition that verbose constructs are more
respectable than abbreviations. But the two constructs are not equivalent
(their namespace behaviour is different), and using LREs should be the
default unless there's a good reason to do otherwise.
