Hmmm, well I'd encourage you to find a way to do it with a namespace prefix of some sort, just because: <xsl:template match="*[local-name()='Foo']"> Will probably compare every single element against the expression. If you have large instance documents this could get pretty slow. Best of luck!

So for both of the above two documents: jeez I forgot about that, I read it once long ago and figured it was never gonna become important in my life :) now it is :( >To get what you expect, simply choose an >arbitrary namespace prefix for your default namespace, and use that in >expressions... would be counter-productive to go through the trouble of doing that as I'm gonna be downloading the rss periodically. Darn I just know it's gonna turn out having to be something with matching against the local-name().
