HI All, I've been using dom4j for a while but never really dived into namespaces. I'm trying to create a sitemap.xml as described here :: http://www.sitemaps.org/protocol.html
They ask for a namespace on the document and the sample structure looks like this: <urlset xmlns="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9"; > <url> <loc>... I am unable to create that structure exactly. If I do this: Element root = DocumentHelper.createElement("urlset"); root.addNamespace("sitemap", "http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9";); Document doc = DocumentHelper.createDocument(root); I end up with a structure like : <urlset xmlns:sitemap="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9";> <url> <loc>... With the "sitemap" appended to "xmlns". But if I leave that prefix empty (javadocs warns against this. I know) like this: Element root = DocumentHelper.createElement("urlset"); root.addNamespace("", "http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9";); Document doc = DocumentHelper.createDocument(root); I end up with a structure like : <urlset xmlns="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9";> <url xmlns=""> <loc>... With a weird empty "xmlns" attribute for the direct child elements of <urlset>. I apologize in advance for what must be a newbie error but if anyone has a solution I'd appreciate it.
