I want to generate an xml file, with namespace references, like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE serial-issue PUBLIC "-//ES//DTD serials issue DTD version
5.1.0//EN//XML" "si510.dtd">
<serial-issue>
<issue-info>
<ce:pii>S9999-9994(04)X0057-X</ce:pii>
...
</issue-info>
...
</serial-issue>
...
But then I get the namespace attribute in the output file:
...
<serial-issue xmlns:ce=" http://www.elsevier.com/xml/common/dtd ">
...
</serial-issue>
This usage is valid according to the DTD (isn't it?) Why is this form a
problem?
KK: My goal was to match what I thought was the correct document. I have asked
for a real sample from the customer directly but have not received one, yet. I
do not know that the form would be a problem. Our submissions for approval by
the customer consist of a large package of files. I have been reluctant to
contribute a file that doesn't match and have it cause a rejection of the whole
package. Clearly, I should make a separate query, especially as my suspicion
grows that the model I've used was generated using tools other than xslt.
If you do generate a file of the form you want (which is quite hard with
XSLT) then the resulting file will not work with microsoft parsers.
...
KK: I happened to open the files with IE but the ability to be parsed by IE is
not important.

KK: Thanks for your help,
Karjala
