xsl:element missing node problem

Question

I was reading Re: re:how to use Apache's FOP (getting NPE) on the Oracle forums and noticed Steve M. said something about not being able to find nodes that <xsl:element> has created. I am currently having this problem when doing double transformations on documents. We would like to eliminate redundant style sheets but removing the table name prefix from our column names.
ex:
SZRADAP_PIDM and SZBRECR_PIDM have the same data and the rest of the columns in the two table are named in the same fasion. I have a simple style sheet that removes the table name prefix.
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0">
<xsl:output method="xhtml" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="node()[contains(name(), '_')]">
<xsl:element name="{substring-after(name(), '_')}">
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="node()|@*">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
It works just fine but I would then like to include this .xsql in another .xsql for transfomation by a stylesheet that looks for the table non-specific tags. As was stated in the article I cannot find the nodes that have been created by the <xsl:element> function. I cannot readily use xsl:copy so I seem to be stuck. Any help or suggestions would be much appreciated.

Well I seem to have found the problem ... I was using an old version of the XDK where this was an apparent bug. I've upgraded to the latest production XDK and it's all fixed.
