The DTD in question contains the line
<!ATTLIST svg
xmlns CDATA #FIXED "http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"
which changes the default namespace. A thoroughly rotten trick to play on
you, in my opinion. Your XPath expressions need to match the elements using
this namespace.
I looked at the XPath specification, but I can't seem to figure out how
I can setup an XPath expression to match a namespace qualified element.
I've tried defining a namespace and then specifying the namespace in my
expression, like:
<xsl:stylesheet ... xmlns:svgns="http://www.w3c.org/2000/xvg">
...
<xsl:template match="svgns:svg">
to no avail. I've also tried fully specifying the URI between various
delimiters (e.g., {}, <>, none), all with no luck.
What is the expression that will match an svg element?
Thanks very much.
Scott
