Re: [xsl] Trying to build a schema and add a namespace

[Dan Vint <dvint@xxxxxxxxx>]

Ok this approach worked perfectly. The only difference from what I tried 
and this was how the variable definition was placed. I placed the variable 
definition inside the for-each loop and used the same element and saxon 
function trick but that didn't work. I got something about duplicate 
namespaces being defined.

If I understand this example, the result is one variable that contains 
multiple elements, these elements are made into a nodeset and then their 
namespaces are used to add them to the schema element.

I don' t have the code that failed any longer, but I'm curious if there 
seems to be any real difference in the approaches? Shouldn't both methods 
work? The only difference I see about what I tried vs what is here is that 
I did the additions piece meal (probably more overhead) but the results 
should have been the same. Barring a dumb coding error, is there anything 
that jumps out as to why my approach shouldn't have worked?

Thank you very much.
