 Michele,

If namespaces were the only difference, then there might be a way. Since
XSLT has evolved so much since the December 1998 draft (the one IE5 is based
upon), there is not way to use the same stylesheet for IE5 and XT (or an
equivalent).

If you wish to stick to the IE5 version of XSLT (16-December-1998), then you
can use the same stylesheets in IE5 and an old version of XT with very few
modifications. I still have that version of XT if you want it.

In short, the namespaces are only identifiers. The real problem is in the
differences between the two versions.

I hope that helps,

Richard.

Hi,

Is it possible for a stylesheet to work on both IE5 and the newer processor
(e.g. LotusXSL or TransformiiX)?  The problem is that IE5 uses a different
namespace than the newer processor.

IE5 uses:
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-xsl";
xmlns:HTML="http://www.w3.org/Profiles/XHTML-transitional";

and

TransformiiX uses:
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/XSL/Transform/1.0";
result-ns="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40";

thanks,

--Michele
