RE: [xsl] Generating an XSLT stylesheet with additional namespaces

["Michael Kay" <mike@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

In XSLT 2.0, use the xsl:namespace instruction.

In 1.0, there's a workaround:

<xsl:variable name="dummy">
  <xsl:element name="{$prefix}:{$local}" namespace="{$uri}"/>
</xsl:variable>
<xsl:copy-of select="xx:node-set($dummy)//namespace::*"/> 

That is, create an element in the relevant namespace, then copy its
namespace nodes.
