Re: [xsl] XMLSS XSL question

Change your stylesheet root element to

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format"
xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:spreadsheet">

The alternative is to change it like

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format"
xmlns:ms="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:spreadsheet">

that is, declare the namespace in your stylesheet and then use it in
XPath expressions like

<xsl:template match="ms:Workbook">

You are currently looking for a null-namespaced element with a local name of Workbook. You cant find it because there isn't any ;-)

Hi,

I'm a beginner in XSL, and I have problem.
I'm using xmlspy 5 with its built-in XSLT engine, and I cant apply
templates for an XMLSS document..

few rows from the document:

<Workbook xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:spreadsheet" xmlns:o="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" xmlns:x="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:excel" xmlns:ss="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:spreadsheet" xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40">
        <DocumentProperties xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office">
                <Author>Trax</Author>
.
.
.
.
.
</Workbook>

the xsl which I tried:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?xmlspysamplexml C:\Documents and Settings\Trax\Asztal\Munkafüzet1.xml?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format">
        <xsl:output method="html"/>
        <xsl:template match="/">
                <xsl:apply-templates select="Workbook"/>
        </xsl:template>
        <xsl:template match="Workbook">
                <xsl:value-of select="name()"/>
        </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

the debugger cant find the <Workbook>...
what is the problem? the namespace or what?
how can I solve this?

Thanks...
