Of course not. I have posted the "original" stylesheet that didn't

Hi,


The (FAQ) problem is here:

  <xsl:template match="@*|node()">
    <xsl:copy>
      <xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()"/>
    </xsl:copy>
  </xsl:template>

Your source does not have a namespace, so when you copy it XSL copies as is. You can get around it by forcing a namespace, like:


<xsl:template match="@*|node()">
<xsl:element name="{local-name()}" namespace="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";>
<xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()"/>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:template>


best,
-Rob
