Re: [xsl] Help to prevent copying of prefix

["David Carlisle d.p.carlisle@xxxxxxxxx" <xsl-list-service@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

your example input wasn't well formed, but

<atom:summary type="xhtml"
     xmlns:atom="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom";
     xmlns:xhtml="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";
     >
  <xhtml:div>
    <xhtml:p>
      We are happy to announce that
      <xhtml:a href="gemini://syndikate.i2p">Syndikate</xhtml:a>
      was publicized.
    </xhtml:p>
  </xhtml:div>
</atom:summary>


the stylesheet

<atom:summary type="xhtml"
     xmlns:atom="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom";
     xmlns:xhtml="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";
     >
  <xhtml:div>
    <xhtml:p>
      We are happy to announce that
      <xhtml:a href="gemini://syndikate.i2p">Syndikate</xhtml:a>
      was publicized.
    </xhtml:p>
  </xhtml:div>
</atom:summary>


produces

<summary xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom"; type="xhtml">
  <div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";>
    <p>
      We are happy to announce that
      <a href="gemini://syndikate.i2p">Syndikate</a>
      was publicized.
    </p>
  </div>
</summary>
