BTW, the referenced page has one error: there is no ambiguity at all about what namespace an unprefixed attribute is in; it's not in any namespace under any circumstances. I personally think this was a design error, but we should either fix it (unlikely now, though I'd support an effort) or live with it. The document's recommendation to "treat unqualified attributes as being in the namespace of the element that contains them" is just wrong, will lead to poor interoperability, and should not be followed). -Tim
