Yes, this is what I thought as well. But exclude-result-prefixes doesn't accomplish this with my current config.

I'm going to switch over to Xalan and test it there to see if Saxon and Xalan behave differently in respect to this case.

Thanks for the idea, but it didn't change the behavior, the result still looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<codeBook xmlns="http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/DDI">
   <docDscr xmlns:ddi="http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/DDI">
       <citation>
           <titlStmt>...


Now you do have a namespace declaration in the result which is not being
used, and is only there because it was in scope for the literal result
element that created it. This *is* the situation where
exclude-result-prefixes works.

Mark,
try to put the namespace node at the root element of the result,
not at xsl:stylesheet:

prefix from showingup.


I did see that particular Q/A in the XSL FAQ and in your

book, I agree


it works, but I feel like its a bit of an overkill

Initially I had tried to write the stylesheet using the DDI

namespace


as
the default namespace, like below. but this failed to

detect the default


namespace in the source document so none of the source

elements were


properly matched. I thought to myself, there should be some

way I can


match the default namespace in the source document? But I

can't find


anything that does this. I came across the #default entity,

but this


doesn't seem to fit either.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet
version="1.0"
xmlns="http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/DDI"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
exclude-result-prefixes="ddi"
>
<xsl:template match="codeBook">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="@*"/>
<docDscr>
...
<titl>
<xsl:value-of

select="stdyDscr/citation/titlStmt/titl"/>


               </titl>
           ...
         </docDscr>
         <xsl:apply-templates select="*"/>
        </xsl:copy>
    </xsl:template>

    ...
</xsl:stylesheet>

exclude-result-prefixes only affects the namespaces copied from the stylesheet by a literal result element, it doesn't affect

copying of


namespaces from source documents. In any case, the codeBook

element is


in the namespace http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/DDI, so the

namespace must


be declared. exclude-result-prefixes only suppresses

namespaces that


are not used in any element or attribute name, and this

namespace is


used. What you want to do is not to suppress the namespace declaration, it is to change the name of the element, which

you can do


by using <xsl:element name="{local-name(.)}"> in place of xsl:copy.

I have a stylesheet that copies an xml document with a
default namespace while it also is adding some content to it:


*The stylesheet*

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet
	version="1.0"
	xmlns="http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/DDI"
	xmlns:ddi="http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/DDI"
	xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
	exclude-result-prefixes="ddi"
	>

	<xsl:template match="@* | *">
		<xsl:copy>
			<xsl:apply-templates select="* | @* | text()"/>
		</xsl:copy>
	</xsl:template>
	
	<xsl:template match="ddi:codeBook">
	   <xsl:copy>
	     <xsl:apply-templates select="@*"/>
		<docDscr>
		   <citation>
			<titlStmt>
			   <titl>
			     <xsl:value-of
select="ddi:stdyDscr/ddi:citation/ddi:titlStmt/ddi:titl"/>
			   </titl>
			</titlStmt>
		    </citation>
	         </docDscr>		
		 <xsl:apply-templates select="*"/>
		</xsl:copy>
	</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

*The xml document*

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<codeBook xmlns="http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/DDI" >
	<stdyDscr> ....


*the resulting xml document*



<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <codeBook xmlns="http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/DDI"> <docDscr xmlns:ddi="http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/DDI"> <citation> ... </citation> </docDscr> <stdyDscr> <citation> <titlStmt> <titl>Foo bar</titl> </titlStmt> </citation> </stdyDscr> </codeBook>

My problem is that I'm getting an extra
xmlns:ddi="http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/DDI" in the docDscr element even though I'm suppressing it in the excludes. Is there any way I can stop this from happening?
