RE: [xsl] Losing a namespace declaration while merging two elements

["Costello, Roger L." <costello@xxxxxxxxx>]

That is a fantastic function David. Wow!

However, when I run it I get this error message at the copy-of element:

  XTDE0430: Cannot create two namespace nodes with the same prefix mapped to
different URIs
  (prefix="", URI=http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink,
URI=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema)

Any thoughts?

<xsl:function name="f:merge">
  <xsl:param name="ref-item" />
  <xsl:param name="refed-item" />
  <xsl:for-each select="$ref-item">
   <xsl:copy>
    <xsl:copy-of
      select="@* except @ref,$refed-item/(namespace::*,@*,*)"/>
   </xsl:copy>
  </xsl:for-each>
</xsl:function>


produces
