Re: [xsl] xhtml DOCTYPE problem

Hello,

you have a namespace in your XML, so it it not only <html>, the
"http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"; is important.

Either you have to add xmlns="http....." to your <xsl:stylesheet> or with a
name xmlns:xhtml="http....", but then you have to match on xhtml:html.

Regards,

Joerg
