Subject: About the xmlns:xsl attribute From: Herve Blondeau <herve.blondeau@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 17 Mar 2000 16:22:12 +0100 |
Hi all I'm new to XML, and I have a question that will certainly seem obvious for the people of this list, but I couldn't find any clear enough explanation for it. My problem concerns the xsl:stylesheet declaration on top of XSL documents, and more precisely the xmlns:xsl attribute.. I wrote a simple XML document and 2 XSL stylesheets, which are slightly different : - the first one containing : <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"> - the second one containing : <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-xsl" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40" result-ns=""> This is the only difference between the two stylesheets. The aim is to get a HTML document as the result of the transformation. To view it, I use 3 different methods : - loading directly the XML document in IE5 - using Cocoon to process the document, and then sending the resulting HTML document to the browser - using Excelon Stylus When I make the XML document refer to the first stylesheet, IE5 doesn't process it correctly, so I get a weird display. But, if I make it refer to the second stylesheet, it properly displays, so I get what I wanted. With Cocoon or Excelon Stylus, it's the opposite : it's well processed with the second stylesheet, but not with the first. Could anyone explain to me the meaning and the different possible values of the xmlns:xls attribute ? Is it related to the Microsoft XSL conformance debate ? Is one of the values deprecated ? According to Stylus error message, the values of the stylesheets refer to different versions of XSL specification. What is the difference between these versions ? Also, is there a syntax I can use that would make my document display properly using any of the viewing methods I described ? I visited many web sites related to XML, but I couldn't manage to find the answer. Thanks a lot for helping me, Herve Blondeau XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
