Aaron, sorry, I did see that, but assumed it was your output rather than your input. I should have paid closer attention.

First, try this. This input:


<html xmlns:xhtml="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"; xml:lang="en" lang="en">
<head>
<title>Announcements</title>
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet"
href="http://my.uwe.ac.uk/uPortal/media/org/jasig/portal/layout/AL_TabColumn/integratedModes/myuwe/skin/myuwe.css"/>
</head>
<body>
<div id="announcements">
<h1>myUWE System Announcements</h1>


<p>Module Marks are now available for the following modules:</p>

<table>
<tr><td>UZYRKF-40-3</td><td>Advanced Radiotherapy Studies</td></tr>
<tr><td>UZYRKC-30-3</td><td>Evaluating Physiotherapy &amp; Practice</td></tr>
<tr><td>UZYRJN-40-2</td><td>Developing Clinical Reasoning &amp; Practice</td></tr>
<tr><td>UZYRJR-20-2</td><td>Fieldwork 2</td></tr>
<tr><td>UZYRJ9-40-2</td><td>Psychosocial Challenges to Occupation</td></tr>
</table>
</div>
</body>
</html>


With this XSL (yours, modified slightly)

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
   xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
   xmlns:a="atg.uwe.ac.uk"
   exclude-result-prefixes="a">

<xsl:output indent="yes" method="xml" omit-xml-declaration="yes"/>

   <xsl:template match="/">
	    <xsl:copy-of select="html/body/div[@id = 'announcements']"/>
   </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

Will copy the div and its contents.

Notice that I've added a "xhtml" prefix to the namespace declaration in your input.

So the reason you were not getting any output previously is because the input was in one namespace, and the processor was looking in another.

Unfortunately I'm not versed in the subtleties of processing wrt namespaces (I've been at this just a few months myself, and I haven't read up enough...), so hopefully somebody more versed than I can comment.

Regards,

--A
