Wow... That makes complete sense now... I still can't believe that I've never seen this before, but now I know how to handle it, so I guess there's always something new to learn! Thank you so much for your response and this reference... Big help!

All elements in the above feed are in the 'http://catalog.9squared.com' namespace, so in order to match them you will have to declare that namespace in your stylesheet, give it a prefix and then match elements with that prefix: <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:foo="http://catalog.9squared.com" ...... And then: <xsl:template match="foo:whatever">..... Read here for more 'Matching nodes in the default namespace' info: http://www.dpawson.co.uk/xsl/sect2/N5536.html#d6408e1012 cheers andrew
