RE: [xsl] Adding Prefixes to Elements

---

---

Ok, I wrote a stylesheet to transform the XSL file and
it works, Thanks!

The only problem is that it aligns everything to the
left margin in the output, even when I do indent="yes"
in the output method.  I want the alignment, spacing,
and indentation to be exactly like it was in the
original xsl file.
