The relevant section of the XSL 1.1 Recommendation is at http://www.w3.org/TR/xsl11/#d0e386, but it doesn't specifically mention XSL attributes explicitly in the XSL namespace. You could argue that it should be allowed, but in practice the Recommendation, and probably all implementations, assumes unprefixed attributes. > is there any website where i can test the validity of my xsl-fo ?

I strongly disagree.
<prefix:element prefix:attribute="some value" xmlns:prefix="a namespace URI"/> is valid XML, no question about that. Moreover, <other_prefix:element other_prefix:attribute="some value" xmlns:other_prefix="a namespace URI"/> should be treated by the parser in the same manner as the first one if the namespace URI is the same. FOP can't handle either. All commercial renderers (Antenna House, Ecrion, RenderX) can handle both. Florin Vasilian Director of Software Development Ecrion Software www.ecrion.com

All commercial renderers (Antenna House, Ecrion, > RenderX) can handle both. XSL 1.1 supports [5] both XML Names 1.0 [1] (with XML 1.0 documents) and XML Names 1.1 [2] (with XML 1.1 documents). Your assertions about the equality of the XML where only the namespace prefixes differ is correct. However, an unprefixed attribute (even when there is a default namespace in effect) and a prefixed attribute with the same local name are not identical. See the second example in Section 6.3 [3][4] of either Rec. In particular, note that there are two separate attributes in: <good a="1" n1:a="2" />' Which does mean that this is legal XML: <fo:block start-indent="10.620px" fo:start-indent="620px"> The XSL 1.1 Recommendation states that it uses the 'fo:' prefix "for referring to elements in the XSL namespace". It doesn't use it for attributes. None of the examples in the Rec use prefixed attributes for properties. You have the option of your implementation equating prefixed property names with property names, but IMO that is not the intent of the XSL Rec, and generated FO will be more portable if it doesn't prefix the property names. You, or anyone, are welcome to raise a comment about this on the XSL-FO Bugzilla [7]. (I'm going away tomorrow so I don't have time to do it myself.) Regards, Tony Graham Tony.Graham@...
