[XSL-LIST Mailing List Archive Home] [By Thread] [By Date] [Recent Entries] [Reply To This Message] Namespace attached to host doc rather than payload
 Hello,
I am working on a web service that takes an xml source from another web
service and transforms it. The xml source is an xml document that contains
another xml document payload:
(The following examples are greatly simplified test schemas I have
constructed, for easier reading.)
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<data>
<dataheader>
<count>2</count>
</dataheader>
<datum datid="1">
<identifier>i1</identifier>
<metadata xmlns:q="http://www.example.com/queue/">
<q:one>one</q:one>
<q:two>two</q:two>
</metadata>
</datum>
<datum datid="2">
<identifier>i2</identifier>
<metadata xmlns:q="http://www.example.com/queue/">
<q:one>one</q:one>
<q:two>two</q:two>
</metadata>
</datum>
</data>
This document should transformed into another type of document and its
payload also transformed into another type of document:
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<ListRecords>
<record>
<header>
<identifier>i1</identifier>
</header>
<body>
<payload xmlns:x="http://www.example.com/ex/">
<x:one>one</x:one>
<x:two>two</x:two>
</payload>
</body>
</record>
<record>
<header>
<identifier>i2</identifier>
</header>
<body>
<payload xmlns:x="http://www.example.com/ex/">
<x:one>one</x:one>
<x:two>two</x:two>
</payload>
</body>
</record>
</ListRecords>
To be conformant with the specification I am trying to meet, the namespace of
the payload document must appear on the "payload" element as above. However,
when I run a stylesheet transformation on the document (using .NET 1.1
System.Xml.Xsl.XslTransform) the namespace is moved to top-level
"ListRecords" element.
I have tried all kinds of different transformations, but none seem to have
the desired effect. Reading through the FAQ I understand that namespaces are
treated differently from other attributes, but I cannot see if what I am
trying to achieve is possible or not with xslt.
The current stylesheet I am using is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:transform xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0"
xmlns:q="http://www.example.com/queue/" exclude-result-prefixes="q"
xmlns:x="http://www.example.com/ex/">
<xsl:output method="xml" omit-xml-declaration="yes" />
<xsl:template match="data">
<ListRecords>
<xsl:apply-templates select=".//datum" />
</ListRecords>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="datum">
<record>
<header>
<identifier>
<xsl:value-of select="identifier" />
</identifier>
</header>
<body>
<payload xmlns:x="http://www.example.com/ex/">
<xsl:apply-templates select=".//q:one" />
<xsl:apply-templates select=".//q:two" />
</payload>
</body>
</record>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="q:one">
<x:one>
<xsl:value-of select="." />
</x:one>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="q:two">
<x:two>
<xsl:value-of select="." />
</x:two>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:transform>
Any help would be most welcome.
regards,
David.
