Thanks, I was just recognizing the xsl:copy was generating the name space info.
In DITA the name space I believe us more for the version attribute that is
defaulted in the DTD as well. The content doesn't leverage the namespace.Sent

Subject: Re: [xsl] Trying to remove default namespace declaration in output
xmlns:ditaarch is a namespace, not an attribute (namespaces are not attributes
in the XDM data model).The way to drop a namespace depends on whether the
namespace is actually used or not. Sometimes when people say they want to drop
a namespace declaration, what they actually want to do is to move the elements
into a different namespace. From your question, it's not clear whether that is
the case here.To drop an unused namespace, in XSLT 2.0 you can do <xsl:copy
copy-namespaces="no">, while in 1.0 you need to use <xsl:element
name="{local-name()}">.To move an element into a different namespace, you have
to use <xsl:element> rather than <xsl:copy>.You template rule for attributes
could be replaced with the much simpler:<xsl:template name="processAtrbiutes">
<xsl:apply-templates select="./@*"/></xsl:template><xsl:template
match="@class | @domains | @DITAArchVersion |
@ux-source-priority"/><xsl:template
match="@*"><xsl:copy/></xsl:template>Michael KaySaxonica On 5 Mar 2019, at

to process DITA topics. This is a conversion/cleanup effort to try and
normalize our content before loading into a new CMS. So basically doing an
identity transformation with some random modifications.In the DTD is the
definition xmlns:ditaarch="http://dita.oasis-open.org/architecture/2005/"This
is the primary template that is doing the transformation <xsl:template
match="node()" priority="-10"> <xsl:copy> <xsl:call-template
name="processAtrbiutes"/> <xsl:apply-templates select="node()"/>
</xsl:copy> </xsl:template>And this is the template that I have handling
the attributes
<xsl:template name="processAtrbiutes"> <xsl:for-each select="./@*">
<xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="name(.) = 'class'"> <!--
Remove --> </xsl:when> <xsl:when test="name(.) =
'domains'"> <!-- Remove --> </xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="local-name(.) = 'DITAArchVersion'"> <!-- Remove
--> </xsl:when> <xsl:when test="local-name(.) =
'ditaarch'"> <!-- Remove --> </xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="local-name(.) = 'ux-source-priority'"> <!--
Remove --> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise>
<xsl:attribute name="{local-name(.)}" select="."/> </xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose> </xsl:for-each></xsl:template>Basically I want to copy
the attributes in the XML file that have been applied and remove anything that
has a default in the DTD.I have the ditaarch test here that is doing no good,
but the other tests do what they are supposed to. For the namespace I tried
declaring this namespace on the <xsl:stylesheet> element and then exclude it
but that didn't work either.Any suggestions?..dan
