Sorry to bother everyone with a question whose answer is probably in the FAQ, but I couldn't find it there. My input document (which happens to be a schema) has the following form: <xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:pfx="http://my.url" targetNamespace="http://my.url" elementFormDefault="qualified"> <xs:complexType name="ChildClass"> <!-- details omitted -> </xs:complexType> <xs:element name="ParentClass"> <xs:complexType> <xs:sequence> <xs:element name="Property" type="pfx:ChildClass"/> </xs:sequence> </xs:complexType> </xs:element> </xs:schema> As part of its processing, my transform needs to identify all complexType nodes that are referenced as types elsewhere in the document. In the example above, I need to identify ChildClass because it is a complexType that is referenced by the "type" attribute within the ParentClass. I would expect the following to work: <xsl:template match="/"> <xsl:for-each select="(*/xs:simpleType|*/xs:complexType)[//@type=@name]"> <!-- do something useful -> </xsl:for-each> </xsl:template> But, at least with Saxon6.5.5 it selects nothing. It seems like a namespace problem, since removing pfx: from the type (and defining a default namespace) makes the transform work as I expect it to. I suppose I could play around with local-name() and get the transform to work, but that doesn't seem like the right approach. I was thinking (hoping?) that XSL would handle the namespace resolution automatically, but clearly I am wrong. Or perhaps my select is wrong, and it just happens to work by coincidence without namespace prefixes. In any case, I would welcome enlightenment. Many thanks for your patience and thanks in advance for any assistance, Stephen
