Hello xsl-list,
  I'm using MSXML SP2 to transform Why is xlms="" appearing in meta & table
W3C XHTML 1.0 standard:- Root element must be "html" & contain namespace as 
below:
My code:
   <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
        "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
        <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
        ...
        <meta ...></meta>
        ...
        <table>
        ...
Output is
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" 
xmlns=""></meta>
<table xmlns="">
W3C can't validate as XHTML 1.0 Strict!
because it does not recognize - xmlns="" -
Not part of the standard
If I omit html namespace transformation works. But html element does not
conform.
Is it just MS non standards based output ?
Is there a work around so html element can
conform to stand W3C standard
I have got it all wrong ?
