Hello I want to generate XHTML Files out of XML Files trough XSL 2.0. My Style
Sheets is divided in two files. All XSL Files begin with <xsl:stylesheet
version="2.0"xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:saxon="http://saxon.sf.net/"
extension-element-prefixes="saxon"> The main.xsl file has a
template like this: <xsl:template match="Page">
<xsl:result-document href="content.htm"
format="xhtmlTransitional"> <html
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="de"
lang="de"> .... <body>
<xsl:apply-templates/> </body> </html>
</xsl:template> The other XSL File contains all content elements:
<xsl:template match="heading">
<h1><xsl:value-of "."/></h1>
</xsl:template> <xsl:template
match="paragraph"> <p><xsl:value-of
"."/></p> </xsl:template> Now, i if
generate a XHTML File, i get following: <?xml version="1.0"
encoding="iso-8859-1"?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC
"-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xml:lang="de" lang="de"> <head>
... </head> <body> <h1
xmlns="">Heading</h1> <p
xmlns="">Paragraph</p> </body>
</html> If i put all XSL elements in one file the attribute
xmlns="" don't appear. What is the problem? Greetings, Tobias

When you use an unqualified name in a literal result element, for example
<head> or <p>, then it goes in the default namespace
declared in some containing element in the stylesheet module. Your two stylesheet
modules (apparently) have different default namespace declarations, so the elements they
generate are going in different namespaces: the <html> and
<body> elements in the XHTML namespace, the <h1> and
<p> elements in the null namespace. To get the <h1> and
<p> elements in the null namespace (which is what you asked for), the
serializer needs to undeclare the default namespace. You presumably want all the
elements in the XHTML namespace, so the solution is to make that the default namespace
in every stylesheet module. Michael Kay
