Hi Chris,

It's right there, that first attribute declares a default namespace. Your transform searches for Order in no-namespace.

XSL -
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
version="1.0">

You can either add the namespace to the transform (as the default, or with a prefix and use that prefix on your Order element) or you can remove the default namespace declaration from your source, if you have control over this.

Although both namespaces and Schemas use URLs they're not quite the same, and it's perfectly acceptible to have an instance document in no-namespace, using the xsl:noNamespaceSchemaLocation (http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-0/#attribute-noNamespaceSchemaLocation) attribute to provide a schema location hint to the validator.

Francis.
