Re: [xquery-talk] Omit namespace attributes in output file
Hi Michael, > (a) post-process the serialized XML to strip off the namespace declarations > (e.g. with a non-XML tool such as sed or awk), or ok, first I have to check, whether Confluence is able to deal with namespace declarations inside a wiki page anyway. If yes anything is fine. If not the post-processing should do it. I'm starting the transformation with a script file so it should be easy to delete some text in the xml output file by script too. Fumbling around with standard sources is never a good idea (or at least should be the very last choice IMHO). Thanks for your quick help!

Re: [xquery-talk] Omit namespace attributes in output file
Sorry, but the XPath/XQuery data model has no way of representing an element node whose name has an undeclared prefix. XPath and XQuery work only with namespace-well-formed XML. If you really need this badly enough, you could either (a) post-process the serialized XML to strip off the namespace declarations (e.g. with a non-XML tool such as sed or awk), or (b) customize the Saxon serializer. Subclass net.sf.saxon.serialize.XMLEmitter to override the namespace() method, subclass net.sf.saxon.lib.SerializerFactory overriding the newXMLEmitter() method to instantiate your XMLEmitter subclass, and nominate your subclassed SerializerFactory using Configuration.setSerializerFactory() - not actually that difficult if you're comfortable with Java programming.

Why would you > want to? Does Confluence really use non-namespace-aware XML? my xml output file will be some Confluence wiki page saved as file on the server so Confluence will load it on its next start-up. Inside Clonfluence the namespace "ac" surely will be well-formed but that is part of the higher-level "frame" where my xml file is loaded into. BTW: The Confluence Storage Format for wiki pages uses all its namespaces without namespace declaration inside the respective wiki page itself. That seems to be part of the Confluence framework. It is correct to demand the declaration of namespaces. I do not question that. But with declare option saxon:output "omit-xml-declaration=yes"; I can omit the xml declaration at the beginning of the xml output file. I need some parameter/option to omit every namespace declaration. Kind of: declare option saxon:output "omit-all-ns-declaration=yes"; So I declare the following namespace as I do it now: declare namespace ac="https://www.atlassian.com/schema/confluence/6/ac;; If not there will be an error message due to a missing namespace declaration. But the option above would leave the Confluence namespaced tags in my output file as they are: Is there a possibility to achieve this with XQuery or Saxon?

Re: [xquery-talk] Omit namespace attributes in output file
XQuery output has to be well-formed (and namespace-well-formed) XML, so you can't output an element name like unless the "ac" prefix is declared and bound to a namespace URI. Why would you want to? Does Confluence really use non-namespace-aware XML?
