HI All,

I am trying to display the following simple SOAP message in a web browser using XSLT:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<?xml-stylesheet href="calculate.xsl" type="text/xsl"?>
<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<soap:Body><CalculateResponse xmlns="http://www.ntforl.com/">
<CalculateResult>0.772727251</CalculateResult>
</CalculateResponse>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>

I am using the following .xsl stylesheet (called calculate.xsl):

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">

<xsl:template match="/">
<html>
<head>
<title>Web Services and SOAP messages</title>
</head>

<body>

<h3>The answer is:</h3>
<b><xsl:value-of select="soap:Body/CalculateResponse/CalculateResult"/></b>

</body>
</html>

</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

I wish only to display the contents of CalculateResult, as follows:
<CalculateResult>0.772727251</CalculateResult>

I get an error that complains about 'soap:Body' element

Anyone got any suggestions ?

You are missing the definition of a few namespaces, and one step in the XPath expression; try this:

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
xmlns:response="http://www.ntforl.com/">
...
<b><xsl:value-of select="soap:Envelope/soap:Body/response:CalculateResponse/response:CalculateResult"/></b>
