Re: namespace-uri() method returns emty,using xalan 2.

Without the little typo in example 2, which Oleg mentioned, both examples
work in Xalan 2.2.D11. Maybe you have to upgrade your Xalan-version. The
current is 2.2.D12 and should be the release if no more bugs where found.
See at xml.apache.org.
