Dear Gerrit,
Thank you for the explanation! I understand now why I get the @xmlns
attribute with Dimitre's solution. But I still don't understand why I
also get it with Graydon's solution, which does not use <xsl:copy> but
serialize() followed by parse-xml-fragment(). In the input data, the
@xmlns attribute is not on the <i> element itself but on an ancestor
element several levels up. Why then does it show up in the result of
serialize()? And how do I get rid of it using Graydon's approach?
Best,
Wolfhart

Dear Wolfhart,
If the input elements are in a certain namespace, then seeing a
namespace *declaration* (xmlns:prefix="uri") is probably less of a
problem than seeing the original <i> element in whatever namespace it
used to be (<i xmlns="orig-ns">).
In this case, even <xsl:copy copy-namespaces="no"> wouldn't help
because if the <i> is reproduced by xsl:copy, it will keep its
namespace. Only declarations that are not needed will be left out, but
i's namespace *is* needed if it remains in its original namespace.
In order to "copy" the source elements, but put them in another
namespace, you don't use <xsl:copy>. You can use <xsl:element
name="{local-name()}"> in order to keep the (unprefixed, if the input
elements had a prefix) name but put the result in whatever namespace
the rest of the output is in.

Thank you very much, Graydon and Dimitre, for your replies! Your
solutions work very well and deepened my understanding of XSLT.
There is just one little problem I encountered: The data of the
external source comes in a particular namespace. Since I do not want
to have the namespace declaration in the output, I use
@exclude-result-prefixes in the <xsl:stylesheet> element, which works
as expected for the rest of the output produced by my stylesheet and
also for the <title> and <subtitle> elements produced by your
solutions. However, on the <i> elements, the namespace declaration
suddenly shows up, which baffles me. Do you know why that is? And how
do I get rid of it?
Best,

the wanted result is produced:

<subtitle> the subtitle of the book with some

B B B Dear list,
B B B I would like to ask for your help with the following mixed-content
B B B problem. I am receiving, from an external source, data in the
B B B following
B B B form:
B B B <title>THE TITLE OF THE BOOK WITH SOME <i>ITALICS</i> AND SOME MORE
B B B WORDS: THE SUBTITLE OF THE BOOK WITH SOME <i>ITALICS</i></title>
B B B What I would like to do is
B B B 1) separate the title from the subtitle (i.e., divide the data
at the
B B B colon) and put each in a separate element node;
B B B 2) all the while maintaining the <i> markup;
B B B 3) and perform certain string manipulations on all of the text
nodes;
B B B for the purposes of this post, I will use the example of converting
B B B upper-case to lower-case.
B B B So the desired output is the following:
B B B <title>the title of the book with some <i>italics</i> and some more
B B B words</title>
B B B <subtitle>the subtitle of the book with some
<i>italics</i></subtitle>
B B B How can this be done?
B B B I know that I can perform string manipulations while maintaining
B B B the <i>
B B B markup with templates, i.e., <xsl:template match="text()"/> and
B B B <xsl:template match="i"/>. But in this case I do not know how to
B B B divide
B B B the data at the colon. And I know that I can divide the data at the
B B B colon with <xsl:value-of select="substring-before(.,': ')"/>, but
B B B then I
B B B loose the <i> markup. So I am at a loss.
B B B Thanks in advance for your help!
