Some SVG versions define a default "xmlns" attribute in the DTD, so software that loads external DTDs would actually see a namespace attribute there. Software that uses a non-validating parser (such as Mozilla) may not load external DTDs and hence may not see the "xmlns" attribute. That said, I can't recall whether the Adobe SVG plugin also allows lack of an xmlns in SVG versions that do not use the DTD in question.... -Boris
