Thank you very much, this worked for me. Dale

Hi Dale, You need to specify the namespace explicitly in your stylesheet. Try this: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"; xmlns:x="http://foo"; > <xsl:template match="x:b"> <d> </d> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="@* | node()"> <xsl:copy> <xsl:apply-templates select="@*"/> <xsl:apply-templates/> </xsl:copy> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> -----Original Message----- From: Dale Beermann [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, December 18, 2007 7:16 AM To: xalan-j-users@xml.apache.org Subject: Issue resolving templates when namespace is applied. I apologize if this is received twice. I'm having a problem getting my templates to apply when my root node has a namespace. If my XML file looks like this: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <a xmlns="http://foo";> <b> <c /> </b> </a> and my XSL file looks like this: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";> <xsl:template match="b"> <d> </d> </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="@* | node()"> <xsl:copy> <xsl:apply-templates select="@*"/> <xsl:apply-templates/> </xsl:copy> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> I am getting the same result as the original file (there is no <d> node written to the result). I'm running Xalan on the command line, using: java -classpath "xml-apis.jar;xercesImpl.jar;xalan.jar;serializer.jar" org.apache.xalan.xslt.Process -in input.xml -xsl transformation.xsl -out result.xml If I remove the xmlns attribute from my input file, things work fine and I end up with the expected result. I don't know if this is a problem with how I'm specifying something, a problem with Xalan, or maybe even a problem with the underlying Xerces library. I know that we disable namespace processing using Xerces for a few other things, but I don't know if it's possible to do that with Xalan. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Dale Beermann
