Question

Answer 1

+5 A:

Yes, it's a problem with the namespace. All of the elements in your input document are in the namespace http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation. Your template is trying to match elements that are in the default namespace, and it's not finding any.

You need to declare this namespace in your transform, assign it a prefix, and then use that prefix in any patterns that are intended to match elements in that namespace. So your XSLT should look something like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
    xmlns:msxsl="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xslt" 
    xmlns:p="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
    exclude-result-prefixes="msxsl"/>

<xsl:output method="html" indent="yes"/>

<xsl:template match="/">
  <html>
    <body>
      <xsl:apply-templates />
    </body>
  </html>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="p:FlowDocument">
  <xsl:apply-templates />
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="p:Paragraph" >
  <p>
    <xsl:apply-templates />
  </p>
</xsl:template>

Thanks Robert - I had tried adding the namespace to the xsl:stylesheet tag but hadn't prepended the namespace to the match field.

Answer 2

A:

It works when I remove this from your source document:

xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"

I don't believe your last two templates are matching at all. (You can test by putting something like a wrapping <div> in your FlowDocument template.)

The FlowDocument comes directly from a WPF RichTextBox, so I'd rather handle it in the xslt than by manipulating the source. Adding the namespace and qualifying the element match fields fixed the issue.

Answer 3

A:

Just try changing

"xsl:template match='/'"

tag in your xsl file with

"xsl:template match='*'"

This should give you the desired output.
