Stylesheets with: <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-xsl" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40" result-ns=""> and stylesheets with: <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/XSL/Transform/1.0" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40" result-ns=""> are using different namespaces -- different URI references -- for the XSLT elements and attributes, even though they both use the "xsl" prefix. I would also predict that XSLT version 1.1 will use: <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/XSL/Transform/1.1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40" result-ns=""> so XSLT processors can disambiguate XSLT 1.0 stylesheets and XSLT 1.1 stylesheets. As the quoted message says, aren't namespaces wonderful!
