Saurabh PSubject: xsl:value of element
Author: Saurabh P

Hi All.
I have a XML fragment (pls see below)

<aa:Info>
<aa:Number xmlns:aa="http://www.xyz.com/POSLog2.1"> 49804</aa:Number>
<aa:PONum xmlns:aa="http://www.xyz.com/POSLog2.1">1234</aa:PONum>
<aa:Date xmlns:aa="http://www.xyz.com/POSLog2.1">2006-01-18</aa:Date>
</aa:Info>


I am using the following expression to get the value within the element
aa:PONum. It doesn't retun any value.

<xsl:value-of select="aa:Info/aa:PONum/text()"/>

However If I remove the name space attribute (xmlns:aa="http://www.xyz.com/POSLog2.1") from the aa:PONum element , I get a value of 1234 , which is what I need.

Can any body tell me, what am I doing wrong. Thx in advance

The trouble is in the portion of the XSLT that you haven't shown.

In the context of the statement
<xsl:value-of select="aa:Info/aa:PONum/text()"/>
the namespace should be set with xmlns:aa="http://www.xyz.com/POSLog2.1"

Remember that the prefixes mean nothing unless the execution
environment has them set the same way. They are just local
placeholders for the namespace URI.

Removing the xmlns:aa from the aa:PONum works because now the PONum
element is in the same namespace (the default one "") as is set in
your XSLT.
