When I try to run transformation using xalan, I keep getting this error:

namespace prefix: #all

I do have exclude-result-prefixes in my stylesheet and I use XSLT2.0.

How do I prevent this error?!

By using an XSLT 2.0 processor -- Xalan is strictly 1.0, see <http://xml.apache.org/xalan-j/> -- or by using an XSLT 1.0 stylesheet that doesn't try to use a 2.0 construct like #all.

Especially since #all is a keyword for _modes_, not prefixes; if you've
got something in your code where a namespace prefix starts with an
octothorpe (#) that's not going to work anywhere, prefixes can have the
characters of the Name production except for

Surely #all is an allowed value for exclude-result-prefixes? It's in the example code here:
