Re: Name Spaces in Selects and xsl:element

> Thanks guys... local-name() is different than name() how?


in xml namespaces a name consists of a local name and optionally a
namespace prefix. local-name() returns the local name (ie the part after
any colon) name() returns a full element name, possibly including a
namespace prefix which is usually in practice the prefix used in the
source file (although the xpath spec allows parsers to use different
namespace prefixes than the ones that appear in the source file).
