I have had this issue forever as well. IMO this is a missing feature of XForms: the ability to specify which namespace prefixes should be removed. XProc [1] has this feature already, thanks to the @ignore-inline-prefixes attribute. XForms should have it too. In the meanwhile, the only thing you can do is externalize the instance into a separate file, and load it with @src. -Erik [1] ignore-inline-prefixes On Jul 11, 2008, at 6:23 AM, Swithun Crowe wrote: > > Hello > > I have a small puzzling problem.
