Hey, Wendell! We were just speaking of your magic with DHQ. :-) In XSLT 1 it's implementation dependent but in practice all systems did the same thing or had multiple prefixes for the smae namespace in the source document (or you were also using namespace aliasing, in which case it wasn't always clear which prefix would be used) in xslt 2 it is specified that you get the prefix that is stored for that node in the XDM representation of the input, although there is a bit of leeway in how the XDM tree is constructed from the original text, in practice it is a lot less system dependent in xslt 2. I.e., if the context node is<tei:head>, will this always return "tei:head" (where "tei" is the prefix as used in the stylesheet, I presume) or will it sometimes make up its own namespace prefix (e.g., "ns1:head") or generate a string that indicates the namespace in some other way (e.g. "http://www.tei-c.org/ns/1.0^^head")? well they always strips the prefix so it's completely different result, actually i think you could just about claim conformance in xslt 1 if every element name was reported as being "foo" so you are not completely free of system dependency evn with local-name. <xsl:value-of select="1"/> is fairly safe.
