Unable to process EAD input document

[Alberto Caeiro]

Hello,

I am trying to transform (XSLT) a set of EAD XML documents. When I try to access the nodeset from my stylesheet (e.g., <xsl:for-each select="//">) it only reads in the attributes from the <eadheader> element (the first child element after <ead>). No other nodes from the source document are recognized. I can perform an <xsl:apply-templates/> to output the document text, but nothing else. Here are what the two top-level elements look like:

Code: Select all

<ead audience="external" 

     xmlns="urn:isbn:1-931666-22-9"

     xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"

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

     xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.loc.gov/ead/ http://www.loc.gov/ead/ead.xsd">

   <eadheader langencoding="iso639-2b" audience="external" countryencoding="iso3166-1" dateencoding="iso8601" repositoryencoding="iso15511" scriptencoding="iso15924" relatedencoding="MARC21">

Again, only the attributes of <eadheader> are accessible from my stylesheet. Any idea of what is happening here?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Never mind, I realized that I wasn't using the "xpath-default-namespace" attribute for EAD. Sorry!
