You are, of course, absolutely right.
For the benefit of any future searching of the list archives, the
sequence to get this right appears to be:
a = doc.createElement(localNamespace, prefix + ":" + tag);
a.setAttributeNS(xmlnsNamespace, "xmlns:" + prefix, localNamespace);
a.setAttributeNS(xmlnsNamespace, "xmlns:xsi", xmlschemaNamespace);
a.setAttributeNS(xmlschemaNamespace, "xsi:schemaLocation",
"localNamespace path-to-schema");
I hope to one day understand why it takes four lines to achieve a
construct that seems so fundamental.
