Subject: [xsl] Correcting unbound namespace prefixes From: Tony Nassar <tnassar@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 2 Aug 2010 09:08:43 -0700 |
I'm not sure this is the correct place to post. This may be a question about JAXP, or simply about good standard operating procedure for bad input data. I've got some XML that I know is invalid, but I'm not in a position to get the customer to fix it. Here's what it looks like: <document> <text>Four score and twenty years ago..,</text> <pp:metadata publication-date="2010-07-31T12:30:00Z" /> ... You get the idea (I hope): clearly someone began with XML in the "" namespace, extracted metadata in a post-processing step, and inserted the corresponding markup without adding the necessary namespace declarations or mapping "pp" to one. I don't know of a way to fix this through the JAXP API (i.e. interpolating the prefix mapping). Or am I better off just preprocessing this XML via Perl or Python before it's ever parsed?
