Hi all,

I have an HTML5-namespaced document containing MathML-namespaced <math>
content:

<!DOCTYPE html>

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";>

<head>

<title>Equations</title>

</head>

<body>

<math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML";>

<mrow>

<mspace/>

</mrow>

</math>

</body>

</html>

I am trying to create an XSLT transformation that modifies these islands
of MathML while leaving the surrounding content untouched. As a test, I
try wrapping <mspace> elements in <mrow>:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

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

xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";

xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML";

So why do you declare that prefix mml here although you don't need it anywhere? It will be in scope for any literal result elements your XSLT creates. Either drop that line above or at least

xpath-default-namespace="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML";


exclude-result-prefixes="xs"

use exclude-result-prefixes="#all" here or exclude-result-prefixes="xs mml"

if you prefer.
