Here is my guess. xmlns, like all attributes that start with "xml", is an attribute that only has meaning in XML documents. An HTML 4.0 document is not necessarily an XML document, so nsgmls is not wrong if it only uses the HTML DTD for validation. The HTML 4.0 Transitional DTD does not allow xmlns as an attribute of <html>. > am I wrong in putting > > <xsl:stylesheet > xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/XSL/Transform/1.0" > xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40" > result-ns="" > indent-result="yes" > default-space="preserve"> > <xsl:output method="html" encoding="utf-8"/> > > at the top of my stylesheet. The result-ns attribute is no longer with us, and defaulting unprefixed elements to a non-null namespace URI is causing the extraneous xmlns to appear in the output <html>. It's still not completely clean, but James is erring on the side of caution by handling it this way. XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
