Test #198:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html
xmlns:foaf="http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/" xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#"
>
<head>
<title>Test 0198</title>
<base href="http://www.example.org/me" />
</head>
<body>
<div id="mark" about="#mark" typeof="foaf:Person">
<h2 property="foaf:name" datatype="rdf:XMLLiteral"><span
property="foaf:firstName">Mark</span> <span
property="foaf:surname">Birbeck</span></h2>
</div>
</body>
</html>
With a SPARQL request:
ASK WHERE {
<http://www.example.org/me#mark> <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#type> <http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/Person> .
<http://www.example.org/me#mark> <http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/name>
"<span property=\"foaf:firstName\" xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml\" xmlns:foaf=\"http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/\" xmlns:rdf=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#\">Mark</span> <span property=\"foaf:surname\" xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml\" xmlns:foaf=\"http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/\" xmlns:rdf=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#\">Birbeck</span>"^^<http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#XMLLiteral> .
<http://www.example.org/me#mark> <http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/firstName> "Mark" .
<http://www.example.org/me#mark> <http://xmlns.com/foaf/0.1/surname> "Birbeck" .
}
However. While it is o.k. to have the rdf and foaf namespaces copied into the generated XML Literal, the xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" is actually incorrect. In the case of XHTML1 this namespace indeed appears in the file, can therefore be copied into the XMLLiteral, ie, that test is o.k. for XHTML1+RDFa, that namespace does *not* appear for HTML5, ie, it should not be added to the XML Literal.
We can create a separate test for HTML5+RDFa, doing the same but with a different SPARQL. On the other hand, in view of the controversial nature of the xmlns usage in HTML5, I would probably be o.k. to remove it from the HTML5 branch altogether.
I am not sure about XHTML5. Does the namespace appears for that one? If so, it is fine to have it for that one...
