I'm trying to transform some XML into HTML using XSLT.
Problem:
I can't get it to work. Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
XML:
<ArrayOfBrokerage xmlns:i="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns="http://www.test.com/"> <Brokerage> <BrokerageID>91</BrokerageID> <LastYodleeUpdate>0001-01-01T00:00:00</LastYodleeUpdate> <Name>E*TRADE</Name> <Validation i:nil="true" /> <Username>PersonalTradingTesting</Username> </Brokerage> </ArrayOfBrokerage>
XSLT:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns="http://www.test.com/" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xslFormatting="urn:xslFormatting"> <xsl:output method="html" indent="no"/> <xsl:template match="/ArrayOfBrokerage"> <xsl:for-each select="Brokerage"> Test </xsl:for-each> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet>
You need to provide a namespace prefix in your xslt for the elements you are transforming. For some reason (at least in a Java JAXP parser) you can't simply declare a default namespace. This worked for me:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:t="http://www.test.com/" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xslFormatting="urn:xslFormatting"> <xsl:output method="html" indent="no"/> <xsl:template match="/t:ArrayOfBrokerage"> <xsl:for-each select="t:Brokerage"> Test </xsl:for-each> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet>
This will catch everything that is namespaced in your XML doc.
