This seems rather odd.
Running an XSLT identity transform over the following source document
with Saxon 9b produces the error underneath:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<:a:apple xmlns:a="foo">
<banana/>
</:a:apple>
Error on line 3 column 25 of foo.xml:
SXXP0003: Error reported by XML parser: The prefix ":a" for element
":a:apple" is not bound.TransformerException:
net.sf.saxon.trans.XPathException: org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: The
prefix ":a" for element ":a:apple" is not bound.
Obviously the source document is not valid XML but the error message
is confusing.
Since when was
1) a colon character allowed to start an NCName which a prefix is, and
2) a QName allowed to contain 2 colon characters
which the error message suggests?
