Re: [xsl] strip-spaces

Ah yes, but that doesn't tell me where to fetch the style sheet to  
process the name space "myns."

I was thinking more that some uri would be specified in the style  
sheet header along with the namespace specification - so something  
along the lines of the following:

<xsl:stylesheet
    xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
    xmlns:myns="..."
    version="2.0">

<namespace
	methods:myns="..."/>

</xsl:stylesheet>


This is just a way of relating and limiting included style sheets to  
namespaces.

With respect,
Steven
