Jarno,

Thanks for the long answer !
However, it seems that your solutions require that I declare the namespace
prefix in my stylesheet. Unfortunately, in my case this prefix determined at
run time (it is the value of an attribute in the source document) , so
obviously I can declare it in the stylesheet.
