All my declared namespaces are showing up in my <br/>

[mphare]

I'm using Saxon 8.1B and Oxygen v5 (I'll be upgrading this evening to v7)
When I translate a namespace aware XML file using my stylesheet, I get all the namespaces repeated in the <BR/> html tags. They also show up in other tags (like <p>)

Here's my XSL fragment so far..

Code: Select all

<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"

	xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

	xmlns:x="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:excel"

	xmlns:x2="http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/excel/2003/xml"

	xmlns:ss="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:spreadsheet"

	xmlns:o="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office"

	xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40"

	xmlns:c="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:component:spreadsheet"

	xpath-default-namespace="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:spreadsheet">

	<!-- 

	****************************************************

	-->

	<!-- Begin Output Processing -->



	<xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/>



	<xsl:template match="/Workbook">

		<xsl:apply-templates select="Worksheet"></xsl:apply-templates>

	</xsl:template>

	<!-- 

	****************************************************

	Template for element Worksheet

	****************************************************

	-->	

	<xsl:template match="Worksheet">

		<br/><xsl:text>	In the Template for Worksheet processing</xsl:text>

		<xsl:apply-templates select="Table/Row"></xsl:apply-templates>

	</xsl:template>

... more templates down here ...
	

Here's my output

Code: Select all

Why would the namespaces be repeated within the <BR/> tag?

-: confused :-

[mphare]

I still have thir propblem after upgrading to v.7. I guess I was hoping a newer version of Saxon would fix the problem.

Since it didn't, and I can't believe this is a widespread problem, I must assume I've done something wrong in my XSLT file.

If anyone has any thought, PLEASE let me know.

Thanks,

Why would the namespaces be repeated within the <BR/> tag?

Because you did not specify what namespaces you don't want in the output, by adding the attribute

Code: Select all

exclude-result-prefixes="xsi x x2 ss o html c"

to the root element <xsl:stylesheet or to specific xsl:template instructions.

Hello,

I still have thir propblem after upgrading to v.7. I guess I was hoping a newer version of Saxon would fix the problem.

It is an FAQ. The exclude-result-prefixes attribute is required to be implemented by any XSLT 1.0 processor, so early versions of Saxon 6.5 and Saxon 8 implement it correctly.

I've tried to pair this down as far as I can.

I'm using Oxy7 with Saxon 8B

Here's the original XML document:

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><?mso-application progid="Excel.Sheet"?>

<Workbook xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:spreadsheet"

    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">

    

    <Cell>Inside the Cell 1</Cell>

    <Cell>Inside the Cell 2</Cell>

</Workbook>

Here's the XSLT:

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<xsl:stylesheet version="2.0" 

	xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"

	xpath-default-namespace="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:spreadsheet"

	xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">

	<!-- 

	****************************************************

	-->

	<!-- Begin Output Processing -->



	<xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/>



	<xsl:template match="/Workbook">

		<xsl:text>Found Workbook</xsl:text>

		<xsl:apply-templates select="Cell"></xsl:apply-templates>

	</xsl:template>

	

	<!-- 

	****************************************************

	Template for Cell

	****************************************************

	-->

	<xsl:template match="Cell">

		<br/><xsl:text>Inside the Cell</xsl:text>

	</xsl:template>

	

	

</xsl:stylesheet>

And here's the output:

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>Found Workbook<br xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"/>Inside the Cell<br xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"/>Inside the Cell

Notice the xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" inserted in the <br/> tags as <brxmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"/>

What's up with that?

[mphare]

Sorry, missed your response..

Let me check that out.

Thanks!

[mphare]

That did it.

Thanks sorin.
