I am using Saxon-B 8.7.3 and am having some trouble with empty namespaces. I did a search and read the previous post but they did not help. As i understand it if i have an xml that looks like this: <scnCDR xmlns="http://www.foobar.net/cdr&quot;&gt;&lt;startTime&gt;2006-06-26T12:06:46-05:00&lt;/startTime> <endTime>2006-06-26T12:17:31-05:00</endTime> </scnCDR> and some xslt that looks like this: <?xml version="1.0"?> <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:fn="http://www.w3.org/2005/xpath-functions" xmlns:cdr="http://www.foobar.net/cdr" version="2.0"> <xsl:output method="text" encoding="UTF-8"/> <xsl:template match="/"> <xsl:call-template name="callStateProgress"> <xsl:with-param name="recordType">99</xsl:with-param> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:template> <xsl:template name="callStateProgress"> <xsl:param name="recordType" select='test'/> <xsl:value-of select="fn:normalize-space(cdr.scnCdr/startTime)"/> <xsl:value-of select="fn:normalize-space('|')"/> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> the xpath statements cdr.scnCDR/startTime should result in the data 2006-06-26T12:06:46-05:00| but i get is | the data in startTime is never found. The code i use to parse this is fairly simple: ByteArrayInputStream xmlBtsStream = new ByteArrayInputStream(xmlBts); ByteArrayInputStream xsltBtsStream = new ByteArrayInputStream( xsltBytes); Source xmlSource = new StreamSource(xmlBtsStream); Source xsltSource = new StreamSource(xsltBtsStream); // the hard way to show going from bytes to streams as you would in // a prod env ByteArrayOutputStream bstream = new ByteArrayOutputStream(); PrintStream pstream = new PrintStream(bstream); Result result = new StreamResult(pstream); // create an instance of TransformerFactory TransformerFactory transFact = TransformerFactory.newInstance(); // transform the data Transformer trans = transFact.newTransformer(xsltSource); trans.transform(xmlSource, result);
