XSL For-Each Question

[darin dimitrov]

I have a XML file with a structure summarized below.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="transform.xsl"?>
<ns0:root xmlns:ns0="http://po">
<products>
<ns1roduct xmlns:ns1="http://ns1">
<name>Product A</name>
</ns1roduct>
<ns2roduct xmlns:ns2="http://ns2">
<name>Product B</name>
</ns2roduct>
</products>
</ns0:root>

I would like to apply a XSL transformation on this document which
will iterate through all the *product* nodes and will output the value
of the *name* sub-node. The problem is that there is a namespace on
the *product* node which I cannot remove (the structure of the XML
document cannot be changed). Is there a possibility to perform this
using the for-each attribute and probably some well formed XPath
expressions? I am new to XSL, so I would appreciate any suggestions.

Thanks,

Darin

<xsl:for-each select="*[local-name() = 'product']">

A desired result would be:

<table>
<tr>
<td>Product A</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Product B</td>
</tr>
</table>

Anyway I found that using the following xsl would work:

<table>
<xsl:for-each select="//products/child::*">
<tr>
<td><xsl:value-of select="name"/></td>
</tr>
</xsl:for-each>
</table>
