Ok, then how to import some namespace? My namespace is "vxml" but now it's

As no result I mean:
I have:
<xsl:template name="voice-markup-head">
<xsl:apply-templates select="//document"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="document">
<xsl:apply-templates select="//body"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="body">
<xsl:call-template name="voiceNavigation"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template name="voiceNavigation">
...
</xsl:template>
but nothing in header in result page...
Anyway, why it must be named "voice-markup-head"?
