XSLT with XML source that has a default namespace set to xmlns

by

You need to declare the namespace in your XSLT, and use it in XPath expressions. E.g.:

<xsl:stylesheet ... xmlns:my="http://www.mysite.com">

   <xsl:template match="/my:MyRoot"> ... </xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

Note that you must provide some prefix if you want to refer to elements from that namespace in XPath. While you can just do xmlns="..." without the prefix, and it will work for literal result elements, it won’t work for XPath – in XPath, an unprefixed name is always considered to be in namespace with blank URI, regardless of any xmlns="..." in scope.
