[xsl] element with namespace

["Venkateshwar Bommineni" <vbommineni at elogex dot com>]

Hi all,
 I am having a problem while trying to match root element which has
namespace declaration.
 here is the test snippet i am trying ..


Input XML is:
-------------------------------------------------------
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<Test xmlns="http://www.foo.com/namespace/v1";
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.foo.com/namespace/v1
C:\schema\definition.xsd">
	<People>
		<Person>
			<FName>fname1</FName>
			<LName>lname1</LName>
		</Person>
		<Person>
			<FName>fname3</FName>
			<LName>lname3</LName>
		</Person>
	</People>
</Test>



Input XSL is:
---------------------------------------------------------------
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>
<xsl:template match="/">
	<Members>
		<xsl:apply-templates select="Test/People"/>
	</Members>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="People">
	<xsl:for-each select="Person">
		<Member><xsl:value-of
select="concat(substring(LName,1,1),'.',FName)"/></Member>
	</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>


Output of above transformation results:
---------------------------------------------------------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Members/>


And if remove the namespace declaration from my input xml it works fine.

So is that namespace declaration not allowed or is there any magic
property i need to set in XSL to ignore namespace declarations?

thanks in advance
Venkat
