RE: Namespace being carried over

When you use xsl:copy-of, you get an exact copy, namespaces and all.

To satisfy precisely this use case, XSLT 2.0 has introduced an option
copy-namespaces=yes|no that allows you to control this.

In 1.0, the only way to get rid of the namespaces is to do the copy using an
identity template, using xsl:element in place of xsl:copy:

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