Hi all,
The xslt namespace xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform is used in all the xsl files. This namespace is suppossed to contain the template commands such as <xsl:template...>,<xsl:value-of..> etc. The definition of the namespace says that it a collection of names of elements and attributes. Since the xslt namespace url points to an actual web location, where are the syntax for <xsl:template...>,<xsl:value-of..> etc. stored or checked. Is it through the website or the xsl processor provided with the windows package?? I hope you understood my doubt..

This is a common misconception. It's traditional, and even encouraged, for namespace URIs to be HTTP URIs. But they don't refer to an actual HTTP resource. They are just identifiers.

The XSL processing software is supposed to implement the W3C's recommendations for XSLT.
