You're creating the element with:
<xsl:element name="policy"
namespace="http://www.foo.net/cml/NetworkProtector/fwm";>
The XSLT 1.0 specification says:
"XSLT processors may make use of the prefix of the QName specified in the
name attribute when selecting the prefix used for outputting the created
element as XML; however, they are not required to do so."
It looks as if you're out of luck: you've chosen an XSLT processor that (at
least in this situation) ignores the [absence of a] prefix in the name
attribute.
Many XSLT 1.0 processors do make use of the prefix (or its absence), and
XSLT 2.0 mandates that they should do so unless there's a conflict with
another use of the same prefix:
"The prefix of the lexical QName specified in the name attribute (or the
absence of a prefix) is copied to the prefix part of the expanded-QName
representing the name of the new element node. In the event of a conflict
this prefix (or absence of a prefix) may subsequently be changed during the
namespace fixup process (see 5.7.3 Namespace Fixup)."

Subject: [xsl] Problems with outputing namespaces
Hi,
I'm doing a XML to XML transformation with a
stylesheet. The problem I'm having it that the xmlns
attribute is being outputted differently than it came
in. So before it looks like:
<policy
xmlns="http://www.foo.net/cml/NetworkProtector/fwm";
... >
after it looks like:
<fwm:policy
xmlns:fwm="http://www.foo.net/cml/NetworkProtector/fwm";
...>
I'm using the JDK 1.5 JAXP 1.3 which is XSLTC as my
stylesheet library. Previous I had been using XALAN.
Here is the first portion of my stylesheet:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:npcommon="http://www.foo.net/cml/NetworkProtector/common";
xmlns:fwm="http://www.foo.net/cml/NetworkProtector/fwm";
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"; >
<xsl:output encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"
method="xml"/>
<xsl:template match="fwm:policy">
<xsl:variable name="nodesToMesh"
select="$localMesh/member[not(@component=$localComponent)
and not(@removed)]"/>
<xsl:element name="policy"
namespace="http://www.foo.net/cml/NetworkProtector/fwm";>
<xsl:copy-of select="@*"/>
<xsl:apply-templates mode="access"
select="$nodesToMesh"/>
<xsl:apply-templates select="fwm:Policy"/>
<xsl:apply-templates mode="ipsec"
select="$nodesToMesh"/>
<xsl:apply-templates select="fwm:IPSECRules"/>
<xsl:apply-templates select="fwm:CommonLists"/>
<xsl:apply-templates
select="fwm:SecurityGateways"/>
<xsl:apply-templates select="fwm:MessageConfig"/>
<xsl:apply-templates
select="fwm:ProxyRedirectRule"/>
<xsl:apply-templates
select="fwm:VpnAdvancedSettings"/>
<xsl:apply-templates select="fwm:TuningSetting"/>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:template>
What I'm trying to accomplish is just no prefixes with
fwm: and my xmlns attribute to carry no xmlns:fwm, but
instead be just xmlns. Why is this not working?
Thanks
Charlie
