Declare a namespace prefix in your stylesheet, e.g.
xmlns:ca="http://www.sas.com/xml/namespace/sas_doc_cas_actions-1.0";,
and then select ca:actionSet,
$myActionSet/ca:casActions/ca:actionSet[1], etc.

Thanks to Gerrit and Michael I am closer but not quite all the way there
yet.
I removed the namespace from the second input file and modified my
apply-templates to:
*<**xsl:apply-templates
**select*=/"$myActionSet/casActions/actionSet[1]"//*>*
* *
I now get to the actionSet templates.
How do I include the namespace info in the apply-templates call? I don’t
see how to do this so that’s why I temporarily removed the namespace
declaration from my second input and the declaration for it from my
transform.
I’ll try adding modes tomorrow to see if that also helps.
Thanks,

Hi All,
I am trying to use the doc( ) function, in XSLT 2.0, to get a
second input file in one of my transforms. The primary input
contains an element “refActionSet” that triggers the logic to fetch
the second input.
Within that template I do:
*<xsl:variable name*=/"myActionSet" /
/
/*select*=/"doc('file://sashq/root/pub/pubs_xiswork/sascrs/prod/v16/eclipse/workspace/castest/xml/actions.xml'
<file:///\\sashq\root\pub\pubs_xiswork\sascrs\prod\v16\eclipse\workspace\castest\xml\actions.xml'>)"/*/>*
Which is successfully getting the second file. I know this because
I can write out to the log the contents of the file and I see the
text (no markup).
But when I try to process this second file using:
*<xsl:apply-templates select*=/"$myActionSet"/*/>*
My transform fails due to the root element template being executed
a second time. In the root template I setup some java extension
processes that can only be run once so the second time through they
cause the transform to fail.
The usual way to solve this problem is with modes. Use
*<xsl:apply-templates select*=/"$myActionSet" mode="actionSet"/*/>*
and add mode="actionSet" to the template rules for the second input file.
I’ve tried to solve the problem two different ways, but neither
works. First I tried adding a xpath specification to the doc
function so that the returned XML would start at the element I was
interested in, like so:
*<xsl:variable name*=/"myActionSet" /
/
/*select*=/"doc('file://sashq/root/pub/pubs_xiswork/sascrs/prod/v16/eclipse/workspace/castest/xml/actions.xml'
<file:///\\sashq\root\pub\pubs_xiswork\sascrs\prod\v16\eclipse\workspace\castest\xml\actions.xml'>)//actionSet[@id=’abc’]"/*/>*
* *
but that caused the function to fail and not fetch the second file.
I think it did fetch the second file. But the path expression
//actionSet didn't select anything, because the actionSet elements are
in a namespace, and you didn't tell it to use a namespace.
I also tried a fragment specification “#actionSet” but this also failed.
I then tried to kick the second input files root element out of my
root template with a test for ancestor-or-self::casActions and a
test for descendant-or-self::casActions. But neither of these tests
worked on the fetched second file.
Again, that's because you overlooked the namespace declaration.
Any help would be appreciated in solving this problem.
Note the
namespace: xmlns="http://www.sas.com/xml/namespace/sas_doc_cas_actions-1.0";
