Is it legal XHTML to give an alias to the XHTML name space ? I don't include the XHTML DTD because the parser doesn't seem to like it.

In particular this does not match any element in the XHTML namespace. You want to add xmlns:h="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" to your xsl:stylesheet then match on h:body rather than body.
