Re: xsl namespace question

Ok. I suppose that always confused me about namespaces. I was always
thinking... hmm..... what if w3.org/1999/Transform gets wiped? Will
the internet die? =)

It's just a name, like asking why "apply-templates" causes templates to
be applied, the authors of tehe spec could have called it something
else, but the users of the system have to use that exact name.
namespaces are the same, they use URI syntax but they are just an
identifying string, there does not have to be anything retrievable at
that address.
