Re: xsl] XSL and XMLSchema with "xsd:"


I've been attempting to read a couple schemas, but have been running
into problems.  The schemas are written as follows:

<xsd:schema targetNamespace="....." >
	<xsd:annotation>
		<xsd:documentation>blah blah blah</xsd:documentation>
	<xsd:annotation>

	<xsd:element name="FirstName" type="string" minOccurs="0">
</xsd:schema>

When trying to get information out of here, XSL won't let me select
items with xsd: as part of the name.  Also it can't find something
called "annotation" because they all have xsd: on the front.

Any ideas?

Thanks
