xmlns tp
I promissed an example. Well, here it is..

Last week I was working on a Cocoon webapp that takes 'xhtml' templates and combines them with xml data to generate html pages. I invented a new namespace with prefix tp to which a stylesheet responds by replacing these instructions by xsl instructions. The whole template file itself is kind of inserted into a xsl:template match="/" to make it work.

the tp:insert-param instruction was actually intended to access a Cocoon or http url to get dynamic parameters, but it can be used to access a more static xml file just as well..

I am inserting a template and the meta stylesheet below. Apply the stylesheet to the template and try to identify how the resulting stylesheet matches to the template.

Grtz,
Geert
