oxf: namespace and xslt

Hi Olivier,

Yes, indeed, this is strange. I don't see at this point why you would
get a different behavior transforming a document using the 'ox' prefix
instead of 'oxf'. Would you have some code that we can run and that
shows this behavior?

hi folks,
for the records and the developers, here is my report about the strange
disapearance of
the oxf: namespace.

I tried to transform an xpl template file, filling some dynamic parts
and finally  getting
a fully functional xpl in the end. My problem was, that the root element
<p:config
  xmlns:p='http://www.orbeon.com/oxf/pipeline'
  xmlns:oxf='http://www.orbeon.com/oxf/processors'
 >
turns out like this
<config
    xmlns="http://www.orbeon.com/oxf/pipeline"
    xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
 >
the xsl: namespace can be ignored and is of no concern. BUT I was missing
the oxf: namespace decalaration. I wonder if an XSLT processor by definition
should not consider attribute values while transforming. Obviously the saxon
doesn't care. What could I do? After fiddeling around with the
xsl:namespace-alias
tag which didn't bring any result, I just switched to ox: as the prefix.
And here is the funny part:
I know it sounds weird, but I tried it several times: The oxf: prefix is
ALWAYS
removed from the result document. Using ox: with exactly the same
namespace just works
ok.
Now that's strange, isn't it? Maybe some ops guru can think about that?
Maybe it is, because the XSLT processor itself is connected to the same
namespace
(http://www.orbeon.com/oxf/processors)?
