 I don't think there's anything specific to XSLT 2.0 here. If the outermost element in your result tree has: prefix="", localname="xxx", uri="some.uri" and you then generate a child element that has: prefix="", localname="yyy", uri="" then the serializer has to insert an xmlns="" undeclaration to ensure that the yyy element is in the null namespace. If you think the xmlns="" undeclaration is wrong, then you've probably been putting your elements in the wrong namespace. Perhaps you wanted "yyy" to have namespace URI "some.uri"? In that case, you need to correct the code that generates it. When you output an element, the namespace it goes in is determined by the instructions in the stylesheet that produce this element. It doesn't automatically (or even by default) go in the same namespace as its parent in the result tree.
