Is that really an "x" instead of an "s" in your code or did you just mistype
it into your message?

I looked at the XPath specification, but I can't seem to figure out how 
I can setup an XPath expression to match a namespace qualified element.  
I've tried defining a namespace and then specifying the namespace in my 
expression, like:

   <xsl:stylesheet ... xmlns:svgns="http://www.w3c.org/2000/xvg";>
   ...
   <xsl:template match="svgns:svg">

to no avail.  I've also tried fully specifying the URI between various 
delimiters (e.g., {}, <>, none), all with no luck.

What is the expression that will match an svg element?

Thanks very much.
