Re: Identity transformation (without using xsl:copy)

If this is the start document:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<j:juicers xmlns:j="http://www.juicers.org">
     <j:juicer id="omega">

Then this should be the result document:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<j:JUICERS xmlns:j="http://www.juicers.org">
     <j:JUICER id="omega">

If I could use <xsl:element> then I could easily accomplish this
transformation. However, it escapes me how to do it if I am forced to
use <xsl:copy>.

Check whether this can be modified to fit your needs. Don't count
on namespace prefixes being preserved.
  <xsl:template match="*">
      <xsl:element name="{local-name(.)}" namespace={namespace-uri(.)}>
          <xsl:for-each select="@*">
              <xsl:attribute name="{local-name(.)} namespace={namespace-uri(.)}">
                  <xsl:value-of select="."/>
              </xsl:attribute>
          </xsl:for-each>
          <xsl:apply-templates/>
      </xsl:element>
  </xsl:template>
