How can I match the xmlns:* attributes with XSLT ?

Question

How can I match the xmlns:* attributes with XSLT 1.0 ? Using a RDF document I tried:

<xs:template match="rdf:RDF">
(...)
<xsl:for-each select="@*">
  <xsl:value-of select="."/>
</xsl:for-each>
(...)
</xsl:template>

but it doesn't seem to work for the xmlns attributes.

Thanks.

Answer 1

You can't directly, but have a look at the namespace axis:

<xsl:for-each select="namespace::*">
    <xsl:value-of select="."/>
</xsl:for-each>

Answer 2

The xmlns attributes aren't normal attributes, they are namespace declarations. You need to use the namespace axis to access them.

e.g.:

<xsl:for-each select="namespace::*">
   <xsl:value-of select="name()" />
</xsl:for-each>
