The code that suppresses the soap namespace is from G. Ken Holman's post:

Unfortunately, this seems to generate errors in Saxon (Treebeard's processor), IE, and Firebird. Ken uses semicolons when declaring namespaces,

BigList must have added the semicolons, Brett ... reviewing my archives I see no semicolons in the original message. You'll note from the posted transcript that Saxon runs with the file that is exposed, and it would not have run if there were semicolons as that isn't well-formed.

other places they don't ( http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2001/04/04/trxml/ ), but both (or, of course, something else I'm doing wrong) generate errors such that I get no output.

You don't mention what errors you get ... I'm assuming you cleaned up the well-formedness of the file.
