Because the XHTML output is in a namespace.  The <html> element in your
XHTML output should have:

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";>

Your customization doesn't identify a namespace for its output, so the XSLT
processor puts the output for your elements into an unnamed namespace to
distinguish it from the xhtml namespace.  What you want is for your elements
to be in the xhtml namespace too.  See this reference to see how to add that
to your customization file:
