XSLT Won't match any Element Names?!?!

[markmcgookin]

Hi,

I have the following XML

<AnswerList xmlns="http://tempuri.org/ALPS_Assessmentv1p1_RESCO_Schema.xsd">
    <DateTimeLastSaved>12:12:12 1900</DateTimeLastSaved>
    <UserName>Bob</UserName>
    <AssessmentName>Name of Assessment</AssessmentName>
    <AssessmentID>AssID</AssessmentID>
    <Sec_1_1189068258258>TEXT IN HERE</Sec_1_1189068258258>
    <Sec_2_1188555751625_MC0>1</Sec_2_1188555751625_MC0>
    <Sec_2_1188555751625_MC1>2</Sec_2_1188555751625_MC1>
    <Sec_2_1188555751625_MC2>3</Sec_2_1188555751625_MC2>
    <Sec_2_1188555751625_MC3>4</Sec_2_1188555751625_MC3>
    <xSec_Sec_1>Step 2 of 8 - What happened?</xSec_Sec_1>
    <xSec_Sec_2>Step 4 of 8  Assessor feedback</xSec_Sec_2>
</AnswerList>
 

and the following XSL

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
    <!-- Declare the output doctype -->

                        <xsl:element name="identifier_string">

                    </xsl:element>
                    <xsl:element name="date">

                    <xsl:attribute name="ident_ref">

                    </xsl:attribute>
                </xsl:element>
                <!-- End of populate the Context -->
 
                <xsl:for-each select=".">

                        </xsl:element>

                </xsl:for-each>
            </result>
        </qti_result_report>
    </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
 

No matter what I do I can't get this to work!! For some reason there is an issue here with matching the "/" root node.

If I do <xsl:template match="AnswerList"> to start with it will fire off the template lower down the XSL but with NO values in it.... I can not figure out what position I am at in the code.

If i do

<xsl:for-each select="child::node()">
<xsl:for-each select="child::node()">
<TEST />

I will get the right amount of TEST's for the nodes in the AnswerList but I can not match them for some reason.

As far as I can tell the XML is valid (Created in VS2005 according to a schema).

I have had this before hbut was able to get a work-around looping through the code with "for-each"s but that is not appropriate in this case.

I really need help here folks, as this project is already behind schedule and the customer is NOT happy! :S

Thanks very much,

If someone could do a transform on this in xmlnotepad or something and have a look at the results and tell me why it's not working I would really appreciate it!

Cheers,

Mark

I figured this out... essentially XSLT HATES stuff with default namespace... so I changed my schema and XML file so I don't have a namespace in the XML doc and it's working (for now)

Good of you to let us know it is working, Mark!

Have a great week...
