Hi.
I've a few articles on controlling namespaces in output but I could
use a little advice. I'm trying to create DocBook 5.0 output. My
processor is Saxon HE 9.2.1.1.
I added the DocBook namespace to the root element of my output. Why do
its children have null namespaces (xmlns="")? How can I prevent them
from having explicit namespaces?
Here are the source, stylesheet, desired output, and actual output.
Thanks for your help!
Peter
