    Comment:
I made it into an input plugin (A small present to your son, Ross :-)

I give this plugin to the forrest community under the Apache license (or whatever may be required).

Note: I don't know about trademarks. Excel may be protected so please choose an appropriate name!

Description:
I'm trying to get some tables out of Excel into
Forrest ... should be easy since Excel writes
legible XML [1].

I put together a sitemap.xmap [2] for *-table.xml.

I started writing my table2document.xsl [3] but
it didn't match anything, i.e. the version below
doesn't match anything. Matching "/*/*" gives me
the 2nd level elements: DocumentProperties, ...,
and Worksheets.

After removing all references to namespaces (xmlns)
and replacing ":" with "_" it works.

Can any XSL guru help me to get the XSLT working
without modifying the Excel-output first?

Thanks,
Johannes
