Re: [xsl] copying namespaces question

[Michael Kay <mike@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I think I would do it like this:

<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:for-each select="//mycompany:object">
<xsl:result-document href="{concat($dir, mycompany:name)}">
<xsl:apply-templates select="/*">
<xsl:with-param name="object" select="." tunnel="yes"/>
</
</
</
</

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

    <xsl:template match="mycompany:object">
     <xsl:param name="object" tunnel="yes"/>
      <xsl:if test=". is $object">
        <xsl:next-match/>
      </
    </

Although it works I'm not extremely satisfied by hardcoding the namespace http://www.mycompany.com in my result tree.   Just checking if this can be improved.  PS. The example is made up and simplified but showing exactly what's needed.
