Cause

The file cl_displayRecord.xsl does not include a xmlns attribute defining the namespace for the hol prefix.

Resolution

1. In a text editor open:

/m1/voyager/xxxdb/tomcat/vwebv/context/vwev/ui/<skin name>/xsl/contentLayout/cl_displayRecord.xsl

2. Near the top of this file locate the <xsl:stylesheet> tag.
3. At the end of this tag add the following line within the <xsl:stylesheet> tag:

xmlns:hol="http://www.endinfosys.com/Voyager/holdings"
