----- Original Message ----- From: Matt Raible <matt_raible@xxxxxxxxxxx> > xmlns stands for XML Namespace. It does nothing at this point. And the URL > it points to does not matter, but hopefully someday it will. Not true. It *does* do something and the URL it points to *does* matter. xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/XSL/Transform/1.0" says: In this element and its children, unless overridden, elements with the prefix "xsl" should be taken to be XSL elements. (it actually says a little more than this as I don't say anything about attributes, but you get the idea) Note: the "xsl" prefix is arbitrary. The URL is *not*. So: <x:stylesheet xmlns:x="http://www.w3.org/XSL/Transform/1.0"> ... </x:stylesheet> would work as an XSL stylesheet whereas: <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.microsoft.com/"> ... </x:stylesheet> would not.
