[xsl] generating namespace attributes in result

---

---

Hi,
        Iam using <xsl:for-each select="namespace:*"> to iterate over all
namespace attributes on the input element and write them to the result.
using <xsl:value-of select=name(.)"/> and <xsl:value-of select=."/>.

If my input xml elements are in the default namespace, then the
<xsl:value-of select=name(.)"/>  returns an empty string.

Now when I try to do an inverse transform and try to create an attribute as
follows:

<xsl:attribute name="$attrname">
<xsl:value-of select=$attrval"/>
</xsl:attribute>

where attrname and attrval contain the namespace originally written to the
result, I get an error

An attribute whose value must be a QName had the value ''.

What I would like to do is
replace the empty string I get for the namespace name with 'xmlns' ( This
doesn't agree with the processor which gives above error just says 'xmlns'
instead of the '') and regenerate the namespace just like it was in the
original xml in my inverse transform.

Hope this is clear.

Cheers,
Omprakash.V
