I suspect that it's setting the xmlns on each element in AttractionDTO because there's no default ns for it to inherit from. Try declaring an xmlns on the AttractionDTO element itself. That will probably remove the xmlns from its children since they now have an xmlns to inherit.
The elements within physicalAddressDTO do not have xmlns specified on them because it's already specified on the physicalAddressDTO element itself. -Chris -----Original Message----- From: Phillip Rhodes [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, December 21, 2006 12:32 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [xfire-user] remove xmlns attribute from xfire output xml? Hello, The consumer of my xfire service has requested that I remove the xmlns attribute from the child elements of AttractionDTO. If you see below, xfire is not setting the xmlns attribute for child elements of the physicalAddressDTO. Why would xfire set the xmlns attribute for the AttractionDTO object, and not the physicalAddressDTO? The reason we would like to do this is that we are doing an XSL transformation of what xfire returns and this makes xpath expressions easier. Thanks, xfire is rocking for me.
