If my parser tells your ContentHandler that there is a namespace, then there is. Your ContentHandler doesn't get to see any source bytes. If my parser gives your code a XOM tree with namespaces, then there are namespaces. Again, your code doesn't get to see how the namespaces ended up there. > All we have is the document's text.

There are no namespaces in any text unless a parsing spec creates such a notion. -- Henri Sivonen hsivonen@iki.fi http://hsivonen.iki.fi/
