Maybe that's because there is no cmn:responseStatus in your input? Maybe you wanted to <xsl:copy-of select="//cmn:state"/> ? > i have tried to search for a nice reason and people have just hinted > the namespace issue and i have not managed to clear reason like what > is the cause exactly... It's easy to lose reason amidst such a namespace horror show as the one you posted. A horror soap opera, more properly. Really looks like a parody of SOAP. I counted nine namespaces, two of which are unused. You may also want to check if you really want <xsl:value-of>, which extracts the string value, or <xsl:copy-of>, which copies the nodes. You can get a better answer if you tell us (or maybe the XSL-List at Mulberrytech.com) what your desired output looks like. Michael Ludwig
