So my question Is URL makes any difference on the XSL file
transformation ?

In theory, the namespace URL (or URI, as it's called nowadays) doesn't make any difference at all.


In practice, though, XSLT processors expect to see specific values in there. If you want to use standard XSLT -- highly recommended -- use:
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
The other one you'll see is for an outdated, Microsoft-only "XSL" processor:
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-xsl";


If you use the latter, your stylesheet will not be able to be processed by any but the Microsoft product. And even Microsoft is now recommending that you use the former.
