i have a file which I get from a vendor. we are using a industry
schema, hr-xml. however, I can't seem to get any XPath expresions to
work when i receive the file. i think i have pinpointed the problem but
now I need a solution.

I have the following template

<xsl:template match="//PersonName">
		<xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(FamilyName)"/>
		<xsl:text>,</xsl:text>
		<xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(GivenName)"/>
		<xsl:text>,</xsl:text>
		<xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(MiddleName)"/>
		<xsl:text>,</xsl:text>
		<xsl:value-of select="normalize-space(Affix)"/>
		<xsl:text>,</xsl:text>
	</xsl:template>

The beginning of my xml file looks like this (this is where the problem
is)

<Enrollment xmlns="http://ns.hr-xml.org/2004-08-02"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://ns.hr-xml.org/2004-08-02
Enrollment.xsd" creationDate="2005-03-31T11:47:26-06:00">

With this I get no data out of my file.

When I change that to

<Enrollment xmlns="creationDate="2005-03-31T11:47:26-06:00">

the above template works and I retrieve the names of everyone in the
file. 

Anyone know exactly what the problem is and how I can fix it?
