RE: Saxon removes namespace in XHTML output

<xsl:output method="xml"
            media-type="text/html"
            doctype-public="-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
            doctype-system="http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"
            indent="yes"
            encoding="ISO-8859-1" />

Thanks again,
Mark
