Hi there,
We are a bit puzzled by the results we get from saxon and xalan when we try to generate XML with a xslt file in which the attribute on the root element is a varaibel as well as it's value and the namespace. Consider the following: XML: <document> <title>title</title> <a>aaa</a> </document> XSLT: <?xml version="1.0"?> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> <xsl:variable name="attribute">type</xsl:variable> <xsl:variable name="value">gg</xsl:variable> <xsl:variable name="namespace">http://www.google.com</xsl:variable> <xsl:template match="*"> <xsl:copy> <xsl:copy-of select="@*"/> <xsl:apply-templates /> </xsl:copy> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="document"> <document> <xsl:attribute name="{$attribute}" namespace="{$namespace}"> <xsl:value-of select="$value" /> </xsl:attribute> <xsl:apply-templates/> </document> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> OUTPUT: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <document xmlns:ns0="http://www.google.com" ns0:type="gg"> <title>title</title> <a>aaa</a> </document> Why are these 0 characters there? We had exspected something like: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <document xmlns:ns="http://www.google.com" ns:type="gg"> <title>title</title> <a>aaa</a> </document> The result we get with msxml 4 is more or less the same only it's doesn;t generate a zero but a string "auto" or something. What's going on here? Any help is greatly appreciated. RH XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
