Copy namespace definition to the result tree using xsl

Hi,

I am trying to write an XSLT which will create a schema for the input tree.
I am not able to output the namespace definition to the result tree.


To illustrate my question, here's an example:

The XSLT file I am implementing looks like the following:  

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema">
	<xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"
indent="yes"/>
	
	<xsl:template match = "/">
		<mytesting>			
			<xsd:schema
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema">
			<xsl:apply-templates/> 
			</xsd:schema>		 			
		</mytesting>		
	</xsl:template>
	
	<xsl:template match = "test">
		<xsd:element name="abc" type="xsd:string"/>
		..........
		..........
	</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>


The EXPECTED OUTPUT file from the XSLT file should look like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
	<transactions xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema">
	<mytesting>
		<xsd:schema xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema">
<-- problem line
			
			<xsd:element name="abc" type="xsd:string"/>
			..........
			..........
		</xsd:schema>
	</mytesting>

But the ACTUAL OUTPUT file looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
	<transactions xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema">
	<mytesting>
		<xsd:schema>   <-- problem line
			<xsd:element name="abc" type="xsd:string"/>
			..........
			..........
		</xsd:schema>
	</mytesting>

so Here's my problem:  I am unable to copy the namespace of xsd in
xsd:schema element(indicated by the problem line) to the target xml file.
I've done a number of experiments to try to get this work... and have thus
far has no luck, does anyone have any idea on how I could solve this
problem??

Thanks in advance, 

KC
