David,

you add your <Styles> element with no namespace information, This means that your <Styles> element doesn't belong to a namespace, that's why the default namespace is set to "". However, I think you want your <Styles> element to be part of the default namespace of your workbook, so you'll have to add your <Styles> element with the correct namespace:

styles = wb.addElement("Styles", "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:spreadsheet");

this should do the trick

regards,
Maarten

Hi;



I have a root node with a number of namespaces including one with no prefix:

      wb = doc.addElement("Workbook");

      wb.addNamespace("", "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:spreadsheet");

      wb.addNamespace("o", "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office");

      wb.addNamespace("x", "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:excel");

      wb.addNamespace("ss", "schemas-microsoft-com:office:spreadsheet");

      wb.addNamespace("html", "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40";);



When I add an element to that element, I get:

      styles = wb.addElement("Styles");  è <Styles xmlns="">



How can I get rid of the xmlns=""?



Thanks - dave
