Hey there

I think I know this one. (Havent tryied it out yet).

In my Post "OT : Xalan-question" my problem basiclly is the same, and I
think I found the answer in the faq.
( http://xml.apache.org/xalan-j/faq.html#faq-11 )

You'll have to add a prefix to your namespace, and use that prefix in the
XPath.
Default namespaces sucks when using XPath...

I could still use a xalan mailinglist though...
