Originally I did it the way you suggests:
I have removed the xml namespace declaration in the template def. and tried this:

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">

However I get that xmlns="" in my table anyway?

The funny part is, I have two <table> tags in the page which is generated, and it is only in the second one that gets the xmlns attribute - why is that?

The template declarations look like this (now):
<xsl:template name="query" match="QUERY">
And 
<xsl:template name="exparameters" match="EX_PARAMETERS" xml:space="preserve">

First table tag in generated xhtml looks like this
<table class="querydef" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="3" border="1">

Second table tag looks like this
<table xmlns="" class="parameters" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="3" border="1">

I have tried searching the web for answers, but I don't think I've used the right keywords - I haven't been able to find anything which could lead me towards a solution to this. I am a beginner, so it might be even the simplest thing I've missed - so any help will be appreciated.

Have a great weekend everyone,
Flemming
