My root elements used to have local attributes, but now, thanks to the
miracle of XSD, they have two additional attributes, e.g.
<document
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
In the XSLT/XPath data model xmlns:xsi is not modelled as an attribute
but rather as a namespace node.
xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="../../xml_utils/hcdocs.xsd"
index="N"
mark="Y">
The stylesheet generating the output XML creates the DTD declaration with
<xsl:output
doctype-system="../../xml_utils/fmdocs.dtd"
method="xml"
encoding="UTF-8" />
and has some null templates suppressing attributes which are not needed in
the output documents, eg:
<xsl:template match="@indx|@mark|@formatted" />
<xsl:template match="@rowspan[string(.)='1']" />
<xsl:template match="@colspan[string(.)='1']" />
<xsl:template match="@xml:space" />
Using the last of these as a "template" :-) I added two new lines to the
stylesheet doing this job for the schema version of the input:
<xsl:template match="@xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation" />
<xsl:template match="@xmlns:xsi" />
These generate an error, because I haven't declared the namespaces, so I
added
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
xmlns:xmlns=""
to the <xsl:stylesheet> declaration, thinking this would drop both
attributes. I wasn't sure what to put in the xmlns:xmlns one, as xmlns seems
to be a bit of a special case. However whatever I try isn't helping: the
xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocattion attribute is being dropped, but the
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"; attribute is not.
You will need to avoid copying namespace nodes you don't want to be
copied. In XSLT 2.0 you can use e.g.
<xsl:copy copy-namespaces="no">
respectively
<xsl:copy-of select="foo" copy-namespaces="no"/>
You will need to show us more of your stylesheet for suggestions on
where exactly you need that.
