Paul JeffreySubject: cant get namespace declaration in root node
Author: Paul Jeffrey

Hi, I've been struggling to get the namespace declaration into the root element of a document ive done some transformations on, the XSL is as follows:

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output omit-xml-declaration="yes"/>

<xsl:template match="/*" >
<xsl:if test="dest">
<xsl:copy >
<TX xmlns="http://www.mynamespace.com">
<Destination >
<xsl:value-of select="dest"/>
</Destination>
<Method>TCP</Method>
</TX>
<xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="*" >
<xsl:element name="{local-name()}" namespace="http://www.mynamespace.com">
<xsl:apply-templates select="@* | node()"/>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="dest" />
</xsl:stylesheet>

The only way Ive found so far is to have the namespace appear in every child node but not the root... how would I go about doing this? Your help would be much appreciated, thanks

Instead of <xsl:copy>
could you use
<xsl:element name="{local-name()}" namespace="www.mynamespace.com">

?
