Re: [xsl] no attributes outputed when chaining transformations

[Geert Josten <Geert.Josten@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ah, I really ought to test things before I shout something...

Could you send us the result after the first step?

I can't really say I know what is wrong here, but I did learn to be cautious with using default 
namespaces in xsl stylesheets. They both apply to unprefixed names in patterns and selects, and to 
literal elements in your stylesheet. I'm uncertain whether the default namespace is applied to 
elements and attributes that are explicitly created without a namespace declaration using 
xsl:element or xsl:attribute as well..

Things might get mixed that are straightened out by serializing and parsing again. A bit like why 
you have to serialize when using disable-output-escaping to add XML structure or entities (not a 
good practice anyhow!)...
