Problems with trivial xhtml --> xml xslt
Hi, I am pretty much going crazy here trying to capture an xhtml title value and present it within some xml output. The xhtml <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <title>Building Standards Domestic Handbook - General</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"/> <meta name="keywords" content="Building Standards Scotland, Technical Handbooks, Domestic, 2010" /> </head> My XSL <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xd="http://www.oxygenxml.com/ns/doc/xsl" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:ukm="http://www.legislation.gov.uk/namespaces/metadata" xmlns:ukl="http://www.legislation.gov.uk/namespaces/legislation" xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1" xmlns:dct="http://purl.org/dc/terms" xmlns:atom="http://www.w3.org2005/Atom" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.legislation.gov.uk/namespaces/legislation http://www.legislation.gov.uk/schema/schemaLegislationBase-v1-0.xsd" xml:base="http://www.legislation.gov.uk/id/ssi/2011/120" exclude-result-prefixes="xs xd" version="2.0" > <xsl:output method="xml" omit-xml-declaration="yes" indent="yes"/> <xsl:strip-space elements="*"/> <xd:doc scope="stylesheet"> <xd:desc> <xd:p><xd:b>Created on:</xd:b> Feb 21, 2012</xd:p> <xd:p><xd:b>Author:</xd:b> lewismc</xd:p> <xd:p></xd:p> </xd:desc> </xd:doc> <xsl:template match="/"> <Legislation> <ukm:Metadata> <dc:title> <xsl:value-of select="html/head/title" /> </dc:title> all closing tags are present I apologies for the really newbie question, but I've been stuck on this for quite literally an hour or so and the only output I can get is by replacing xsl:value of with ".", which returns the full xhtml page... not what I want. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Kind Regards and thank you in advance.

Whenever I come across a problem like this... it is always namespace. You need to declare the html namespace in your XSLT and use that prefix in your XPaths.
