Re: generating xml with a runtime resolved default nam

You are thinking of xmlns as an attribute with scope .
that's the wrong way to think of it.

Just think of the namespace as part of the name.

  <rdf:RDF
           xmlns="{$prefix}#"
           xmlns:rdf = "http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#">

You don't care about $prefix here, so just do

  <rdf:RDF
           xmlns:rdf = "http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#">


    <xsl:element name="@owls:class">
but you want this to be in the namespace so

    <xsl:element name="@owls:class" namespace="{$prefix}#">
