Re: [xsl] question on default namespace

> Can I "reset" an xpath to no use of a namespace?

yes you can use default-xpath-namespace="" on any xsl element or 
xsl:default-xpath-namespace="" on any literal result element and within
the scope of that element xpaths will revert to the usual meaning of no
prefix meaning no namespace.

so you can probably replace

<xsl:for-each
select="document('http://diglib.hab.de/mss/10-aug-4f/facsimile.xml')//facsimile">
  <xsl:copy-of select="."/>
</xsl:for-each>


by


 <xsl:copy-of default-xpath-namespace="" 
  select="document('http://diglib.hab.de/mss/10-aug-4f/facsimile.xml')//facsimile">
