Re: [xsl] Regarding Default Namespaces

> Please tell me how to access an elment whose URI is a default namespace.

it does not matter whetehr it is in the default namespace or not, the
XSL construct is the ame.

declare the namespace:

xmlns:a="www.apple.com"

anywhere, but uuslly on the xsl:stylesheet element so it available in
teh whole stylesheet.

then use a suitable QName in the XPath:

select="//a:apple"

this matches apple elements from that namespace whetehr they use a
prefix a or b or no prefix at all.
