I have to track the validation code again, as it validates a signature that was produced just a few seconds before, then the XML is written to disk, and then read in again.
I will let you know about my progress.
Many thanks again

Many thanks. Does the cascading down HAVE to happen ? Or can it be avoided ?
As I understand it (and maybe someone else can comment here!) - yes it does.
The C++ library bypasses this by keeping a record of the cascaded namespace attributes and then removing them after canonicalisation, but that hasn't been built into the Java library (yet... :>).
If it cannot be avoided, is there a way to "uncascade" it after signing, or at verification time ?
Not that I am aware of.
Unfortunately, the code from "the code below" was missing in your mail. Could you send it to me ?
Apologies - I meant your code (it was originally "below" when I quoted :>.) SO the question was - are you trying to validate a previously signed document that you have now added the schema attribute to, or are you signing a "schema document" and then the validation is failing? If the former, then the validation *should* fail. If the latter, then the validation should succeed, so we need to track down the problem.
