I disagree. This is our step and it is a simple process for the step to generate a namespace declaration if it needs to do so. If you use the prefix from the QName, you'll be able to do the "right thing" most of them time. When that prefix is bound to a different namespace, the step just generates a prefix for the namespace declaration. If the step generates the namespace declartion, no fixup is needed. This doesn't remove the need to handle namespace fixup in general but, instead, makes our step behave nicely. -- --Alex Milowski "The excellence of grammar as a guide is proportional to the paucity of the inflexions, i.e. to the degree of analysis effected by the language considered."
