Re: [xsl] Transforming Learning Object Metadata (LOM) problem.

["Jaebin Lee" <jaebin.charade@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thank you.
I made some progress with declararing the namespace for lom in that I
now get some data outputs from LOM xml.
You mentioned that I need to add namespace "l:" to every elements
that references lom namespace, so I tried putting prefix to every
match statement that originates from 'lom'
but because prefixing at different match statements gave me all the
different outputs which
still confuses me.
For example below is part of my xsl which starts from matching lom and
have additional match and apply-templates statements from it (actually
all of matching and apply-template statements from my xsl are these).
Is it required to put lom namespace in front of every element in match
statements in order to work?
I believe this also applies to "apply-template" statements, so for
example would I need to put namespace prefix to
<xsl:apply-templates select="lom"/> or <xsl:apply-templates
select="general"/> as well?
so that they would be select=" l: (element-name) " .

I was confused again after trying many things for right output with no
progress...
Could anybody give hints for this again? I'd really appreciate it.
<!-- XSL part -->
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
xmlns:l = "http://ltsc.ieee.org/xsd/LOMv1p0";>
					
	<xsl:key name="gen-identifier" match="//general/identifier/*" use="name()"/>
	<xsl:output method="html" indent="yes"/>
	
	<xsl:template match="/">
	<ROWSET>
			<xsl:apply-templates select="lom"/>
	</ROWSET>				
	</xsl:template>
	
	<xsl:template match="lom">
		 <ROW><xsl:apply-templates select="general"/>
		 </ROW>
	</xsl:template>
	
	 <xsl:template match="general">
		<xsl:apply-templates select="identifier"/>
		<xsl:apply-templates select="title"/>
		<xsl:apply-templates select="description"/>
		<xsl:apply-templates select="keyword"/>
	</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="identifier | title | description | keyword ">

and so on....

Thank you.
