DOM serialization omits attribute namespace declarations





------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED]  2003-12-12 15:01 -------
Officially, the DOM does not require namespace declaration attribues, since all
element and attribute nodes carry their namespace URIs. The DOM Level 3 working
draft discusses this in detail, and provides an algorithm that can be used to
regenerate appropriate declarations.

We *could* produce those declarations as we build the output DOM, just as we
produce them for SAX output -- basically, applying the same fixup algorithm. If
we aren't doing so, that's worth considering... though it might want to be
optional, since it's additional worth which many DOM applications won't care about.
