xslt not working when xml has xmlns="urn" in root element.

Lee
Hello guys, I am new to XML and working on a XSLT to transforn yahoo
shopping search result to html. my problem is the return XML contain
xmlns in root element, here is the sample xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="aproducts earch.xslt"?>
<ProductSearc h xmlns:xsi="http ://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns="urn:yaho o:aprods" xsi:schemaLocat ion="urn:yahoo: aprods
http://api.shopping.ya hoo.com/shoppingservice/v2/aproductsearch. xsd">
............... ....
</ProductSearch>
I am testing my xslt file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xsl:styleshe et version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http ://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="html" encoding="utf-8" omit-xml-
declaration="ye s"
indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<HTML>
<BODY>
<TABLE BORDER="2">
<TR>
<TD>From</TD>
<TD>To</TD>
</TR>
<xsl:for-each select="Product Search/
Products/Product">
<TR>
<TD>
<xsl:value-of
select="Catalog/PriceFrom"/>
</TD>
<TD>
<xsl:value-of
select="Catalog/PriceTo"/>
</TD>
</TR>
</xsl:for-each>
</TABLE>
</BODY>
</HTML>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
if I remove the xmlns="urn:yaho o:aprods" from the XML, then the xslt
works fine, otherwise, nothing shows up. I don't know what is the
problem of my xslt file.
Thanks a lot!

Your problem is that the input XML contains a namespace, but you aren't
using it. Add something like xmlns:yahoo="ur n:yahoo:aprods" in the
<xsl:stylesheet element, and in your stylesheet itself, use things like
select="yahoo:P roductSearch/yahoo:Products/yahoo:Product".

John,

Thank you very much, it works perfect. at the very beginning I tried
add namespace to my xslt file, but I used a wrong name space. Thanks a
lot!

Hi I have an XML documnet and a XSLT document as shown below THe XSLT document brings back a filtered docmument that has the VendorName that starts with a particular sub-string This works as expected with alphabet and number characters and the ' (single quote &apos; entity) character but does not work if a double quote character " is part of the string to filter on This returns all Vendor Names that begin with A (either case)

I have an NT shared hosting account, but the provider names the script/write folder cgi-bin. I want to place DLLs in the cgi-bin directory and get them to work in my Web applications. What do I need to do to get my application to look for DLLs in the cgi-bin folder instead of the default bin folder? Can I expect success in getting DLLs to work in this way -- or, do I need to upgrade from a shared hosting to a dedicated server account?

Hi, I have a set of simple webservices calls that worked fine using .NET Framework 1.0. I am calling a Java/Apache based webservices, the calling side is not able to supply a proper WSDL. What it does is to call a webservice with two parameters, one being a integer, the other one being a "String" which contains XML (not the best practice, however that is the target interface and we cannot change that).

I've built an XSLT file that transforms data to SpreadsheetML format. The XSLT uses a <xsl:call-template/to build each worksheet. For some reason, when I transform the file, it is inserting xmlns="" attributes into my <Worksheetelements which causes the worksheet not to work with Excel. I'm using the System.Xml.Xsl.XslTransform class to perform the transform. Here's a snippet of the XSLT template that is called: <xsl:template...

Hi, I installed Visual Studio 2005 SP1, my application does not start on machines without Visual Studio installed any more. It was working without SP1. After searching the web, it seems caused by manifest file, I changed link option to generate external manifest file. The manifest lists dependency to two version of CRTs, is that the problem and why it lists both?

Hi, Im not very experienced with XSL, this is my first run in with it. I found an XSL file that converts a dataset to an excel readable format. The problem I have is when the dataset has a null value for a column, it does not add an empty element for the column. Is there any way I can detect this?

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
