I have some (unused) namespace declarations in my source xml document that I want to banish.
But if I do:
<xsl:template match="/"> <xsl:apply-templates mode="copy"/> </xsl:template>
plus her template, I get the same results: bad-ns is still declared. Am I misunderstanding her example?
I think so. XSLT 1.0 §7.5 says:
The xsl:copy element provides an easy way of copying the current node. Instantiating the xsl:copy element creates a copy of the current node. The namespace nodes of the current node are automatically copied as well, but the attributes and children of the node are not automatically copied. The content of the xsl:copy element is a template for the attributes and children of the created node; the content is instantiated only for nodes of types that can have attributes or children (i.e. root nodes and element nodes).
So when you copy <root>, the namespace nodes for "good" and "bad" are copied along with it. Your later attempt is the right approach, though I'm as surprised as you that re-creating a namespaced element is this difficult. It really ought to be possible to copy a document using <xsl:element> and <xsl:attribute>, but that doesn't seem to be the case.
