creating an instance of a custom control in xslt?

[Josh Wolf]

I feel like this question has been half-answered on here for me a few
times, but I'm looking for a more complete solution.

I've got the results of a query being returned in XML and processed
with XSLT via XmlDocument and XslTransform in C#. It outputs a web
form. My problem is that I've got a Custom Control I'd like to place in
the middle of the form, with some parameter information fed from the
XML.

I've gone the path of forcing a parse of the output via
Page.ParseControl(), but my problem is that the Control needs its own
prefix. So, instead of <xsl:tag> or <asp:tag>, I've got <ucc:tag>,
which throws a parse error because the "ucc" namespace is undefined in
the parser.

I think the answer lies with XmlNamespaceManager, but I can't figure
out how to use that with XslTransform. Can someone point me in the
right direction? Is there an easier (X)path?

If that method Page.ParseControl gives you an error when parsing the
result of an XSLT transformation then I think an ASP.NET group is a
better place to ask.
If you get any error during/while running the XSLT transformation then
we can help if you show us the XSLT stylesheet and tell us what code you
are using that causes the error.
