Hi Phillip,
the problem with your stylesheet is that with the instruction:
xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
you are saying:
"all elements with an html prefix are associated with the namespace
identified with "http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml".
What you want, instead, is to have all your elements (with no prefix)
associated to that namespace. So, you want a "default namespace".
You do this simply by omitting the prefix in the same instruction, as in:
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"

Full stylesheet:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
version="1.0">
    <xsl:template match="/">
       <html>
       </html>
    </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

Regards,
Costantino

Betreff: [xsl] cannot transform to <html
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

Hi everyone,
I created an xsl file that will generate an xhtml file.  With the xhtml 
file, I run it through an xhtml to fo converter (another xsl 
file  http://www.antenna.co.jp/XML/downfree/Xhtml2fo.xsl).
My problem is that the xhtml to fo conversion does not work unless the html 
element appears as:
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
</html>

Unfortunately, my xhtml file's html element(after transformation) is:
<html xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
</html>


I have the following stylesheet that does my transformation to xhtml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" 
xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
version="1.0">
    <xsl:template match="/">
       <html>
       </html>
    </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

It generates the following:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<html xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
</html>

I want it to generate:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
</html>


Thanks for reading it all.  i sincerely appreciate it.
Phillip
