Hi, I am trying for the first time to get an XML and an XSLT to "talk" to each other - I think I am pretty close, but I am struggling to understand something that I think is namespace related perhaps? When in run the XML, I either get a blank page or all the data returned, not the selection I specify. I have tried numerous ways, would be grateful for some help here please, it's prob one step I am missing that's all - thanks a lot

I hope this comes out ok with the code tags. I should say in advance it is a homework - not looking for the solution, just want to understand why the XMLST transformation does not return my selection, that's enough of a leg up.

thanks for the help
