 Terry, What happens if you remove the default namespace declaration xmlns=" http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" from the top level? Your XSLT stylesheet is an XML document, so this is binding all unprefixed names in the XSLT (such as 'div') to the XHTML namespace. Remove the declaration and this will not happen. Your setting for xpath-default-namespace will still work as this only affects the XSLT (specifically, the namespace assigned to literal result elements) not the parsing or addressing of the source. I hope that helps -- Wendell On Wed, Sep 22, 2021 at 9:44 AM Terry Ofner tdofner@xxxxxxxxx < xsl-list-service@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > I am processing html exported from InDesign documents.
