Anyway- why does the namespace thingy work even if i am offline?
Why is there an URL if it isnt "needed"?
You need to do some background reading....
XML uses URIs to identify namespaces because they are a convenient way
of allocating unique names. They do not identify any network-accessible
resource. And in practice, you can use any string you like as a
namespace name - the spec says that it should be a legal URI, but it
doesn't say that your document is namespace-ill-formed if it isn't.
