Hello stavros
        Thanks for the fast reply, just seen it....

        I understand that not all is implemented, this is why I thought about 
adding this functionality - and came to the problem of Xpath and namespaces.

        Also - I thought about the solution you offered in the Email first, but 
it have the problem that every content page should define <osm:title-copy/> 
tag. And I wanted to allow the default "home" tag to remain if there is no 
"<osm:title-copy/>" in the content page. This is why I chose the other solution 
- which deals with this scenario. (see below). But then I had some problems 
with the fact that the <head> tag had a default name space.

        Is there a way around it ? I couldn't find the Xpath expression to 
resolve the head tag.. What do you think ?

        Thanks

Elad

hi elad

i tell you again that i have not decide yet how many steps (tranformation) i 
need to get the final stuff

to get the title for the momend you have to touch 


main.layout.xhtml:
...

<head>
  <title>
    <osm:title-copy/>
  </title>
</head>

...


and
apply-layout.xsl:
here you must set instruction of you to handle <osm:title-copy/>


adding 2 match pattern:
...

  <xsl:template match="osm:title-copy">
    <xsl:call-template name="getTitle"/>
  </xsl:template>  


  <xsl:template name="getTitle">
        <xsl:apply-templates select="//osm:page-title/text()"/>
  </xsl:template>  


...


another one point in sitemap that you have to fix is to add this transformation

<map:transform src="osml/core/load-layout.xsl"/>

in

<map:match pattern="xml/**.*">

so this match will lokk like the one above it (xml/*.*)


i will make a try to find some time to clean up the code in the next days
