[XSL-LIST Mailing List Archive Home] [By Thread] [By Date] [Recent Entries] [Reply To This Message] Re: Adding prefix to elements that belong to certain
 Corrected so that my result is well-formed The information sets of the above two instances are the same ... there is *no* transformation going on above. Prefixes are irrelevant to XML processing. Note, however, that processors are *not* obliged to preserve any prefix you put in a QName in an xsl:element instruction ... though most do and an example below using Saxon does. Ref. Section 7.1.2: "XSLT processors may make use of the prefix of the QName specified in the name attribute when selecting the prefix used for outputting the created element as XML; however, they are not required to do so." So, you are asking for something that isn't guaranteed in XSLT for a reason that isn't necessary to XML giving a result that isn't different from the original... but a candidate answer is below since you asked. I hope this helps. ............................ Ken T:\venkat>type venkat.xml
