> To be both in the xhtml namespace *and* be DTD valid, it follows that > the namespace must use the default xmlns. well not really, the XHTML DTD goes to extraordinary lengths to allow prefixes to be specified, by setting a parameter entity in the local subset or elsewhere, (which means that the dtd never refers to an element name directly, always via a parameter entity) a document that uses prefixes after setting the appropriate entities may well be dtd valid. All XHTML rendering agents will render prefixed XHTML. The XHTML spec does then have this bizare conformance clause that says that despite all the technical effort in the specification of the DTD and in implementations to allow prefixes, a document dhouldn't use them, but I don't understand that clause s tend to ignore it:-) of course the whatwg inspired html5 proposals take another approach altogether and just define the language in the text, and via a parsing algorithm, with no dtd or schema at all.
