Guess I'll look into that some more. Another way to ask this is, has anyone had success hooking into existing open-source XSLT processors like Xalan or Saxon that include XPath parsers, or say the Perl XML::XPath module, and adding custom functionality? (Some other possibilities I've run across include SAXPath [http://www.xmlhack.com/read.php?item=1321] and 4suite.) Application 1: as described previously, the oft-needed requirement to add namespace prefixes to element names in XPath expressions. Application 2: to validate existing XPath expressions against sample source documents in order to catch errors in the XPath expressions.
