I am trying to generate aspx pages by transforming an xml document that looks like

<SelectionPaneData xmlns="http://tempuri.org/SelectionPaneData.xsd">
  <SelectionPane Columns="4" Name="" />
  <Controls ID="sTextBox1" Label="Text Box 1" Type="TextBox" />
 </SelectionPaneData>

However when I try to generate the <asp: tag from my template I get a namespace error. Has anyone been able to generate the text for the asp.Net controls using an xsl template?

You give us only an opportunity to guess :) Please send your XSLT code and we'll try to help you. Probably there is a problem with namespace declarations.

Maybe you need to encode the : in the <asp:...> tag so the XSLT transformation doesn't get confused and assume that it needs to match that to some namespace.

Work smarter, not harder.

The difficulty arises because asp.net pages are not xml. They don't declare the asp prefix/namespace uri. The asp.net processor has this hardcoded into it but this spoils it when you try to create pages via xslt. I remember seeing a solution on another xml list and I will try to find a link to that for you.
