shopping xml feed
Sure thing.
Here is the XML I'm using:
http://api.shopping.yahoo.com/ShoppingService/v1/productSearch?appid=Yah
ooDemo&query=ipod+shuffle

Below is my best-so-far attempt at the XSL. It's long, so I've shoved it
to the bottom.

When I apply this to the XML, I my result is this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><div id="yshop"><table/></div>

But if I edit the XML and remove the xmlns: attribute, I get the whole
shebang with all my titles and pictures. But alas, I can't do that in
the real world... but that's how I figured out what part of the XML was
choking my XSLT

Here's the XSL


**-- begin xsl --**
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
    <xsl:template match="/">

            </table>
        </div>
    </xsl:template>

    <xsl:template match="Result">
        <xsl:apply-templates />
    </xsl:template>

What does the choking sound like through a stethoscope? Or to put it
another
way, could you be more precise about the symptoms you are observing?

It might also be useful to show your best attempt at a stylesheet to
handle
this - this will rapidly tell people where your misunderstanding lies.
