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
