Achim,
At 03:04 PM 7/12/2006, you wrote: i was expecting to get the same result as in output1. why is pat:bar apparently not the same as the xsl:element instruction above? Actually, in namespace-aware XML, it is. The difference in handling of prefixes between the two methods you've presented is: * "merely" cosmetic * symptomatic of your particular XSLT processor's serializer but not necessarily of others * exploitable when writing "cosmetic cleanup" stylesheets (which in theory are never needed, but in practice are often asked for) Cheers, Wendell
