The problem isn't the xmlns="" declarations, the problem is that you
have put the <table> element is in the wrong namespace (actually, in no
namespace). Show us how you produce the table element. If you put the
element in the right namespace, the namespace declarations will look
after themselves.

Subject: [xsl] generate XHTML header without causing xmlns
attributes in e.g. <table>?
I need to generate valid XHTML 1 strict from my XSL stylesheet
My stylesheet starts with:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>
<xsl:output method="xml" encoding="ISO-8859-1"
doctype-public="-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
doctype-system="DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd" />
When I generate my XHTML document using Xalan-J, I get these
headers in the XHTML file
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0
Strict//EN" "DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";>
Which is exactly what I want.
However, my tables cannot validate using w3c's validator,
since they get an empty attribute with the name xmlns, like
this: <table xmlns="" id="y" class="z">
Also the XHTML tags inside the table (not td/tr but all
others) also get the xmlns attribute which has no value and
they also get an xmlns:fo attribute like this: <br xmlns=""
xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format"; />
How can I generate valid XHTML1 without having those xmlns
attributes inserted in table and <br>? If they must be there,
how can I control their value?
