Hi,

I have an the following xml source

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<vxml version="2.0" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/vxml">
<property name="timeout" value="30s"/>
</vxml>

I have the following stylesheet

<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:vx="http://www.w3.org/2001/vxml">
>

<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/>


<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:apply-templates select="vx:vxml"/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="vx:vxml">
<xsl:apply-templates select="vx:property"/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="vx:property">
<xsl:copy-of select="." copy-namespaces="no"/>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

when I run this I get

<property xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/vxml" name="timeout" value="30s"/>

but, why am I getting the xmlns attribute ?
notice that I set the copy-namespaces attribute of the
copy-of to "no".

Thanks in advance

Herb

Hi Herb,

copy-namespaces=no can't violate the Namespace fixup rules
http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt20/#namespace-fixup

The following approach should work for you
Hope this Helps

<xsl:template match="vx:property">
<xsl:element name="{local-name(.)}">
<xsl:copy-of select="@*"/>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:template>

Thanks again Ivan. I guess there is a reason for your tool.
XSLT can be quite complex. How can your tool help to transform the problem smaples that I've posted?
