> But why doesn't it work when I set the default namespace to the > document's namespace and try to use Xpath expressions in XSL without > namespace qualifiers? because names in Xpath work like attribute names: unprefixed names always refer to no-namespace, if you want to refer to an element in a namespace you need to use a prefix (in the xpath, it doesn't matter whether or not the original document is prefixed) (Xpath 2 allows you to specify which namespace unprefixed names refer to so in Xpath2 you'd be able to get the effect you want, although even there (in xslt2 it would not automaticaly pick up the default namespace in the stylesheet) David ________________________________________________________________________ This e-mail has been scanned for all viruses by Star Internet.
