This was indeed the problem. AttributeNodes added with "setAttribute" (without NS) return null when getLocalName() is called on the attribute. Apparently this is desired behavior. I should have used getNodeValue(), which always returns the local name without namespaces. Needless to say I disagree with the DOM spec here. Thank you for looking into this. I have fixed it for future versions. > Cheers > Andreas Max
