I would propose using a pipeline approach: if you find RSS 0.91, first do a transform step that adds the namespaces, then the rest of the transformation can be written on the basis that the namespaces are there. A series of simple transformations is generally better than a complex one that tries to handle everything at once. A transformation to add namespaces is a simple variant of the identity transform: <xsl:template match="*"> <xsl:element name="{local-name()}" namespace="..."> <xsl:copy-of select="@*"/> <xsl:apply-templates/> </ </ Michael Kay http://www.saxonica.com/
