Hi,

I'm using the DOM 3 serializer in Xalam. Actually, its the one now packaged with Xerces since they deprecated their own serializers. I've found that this serializer adds xmlns:xml namespace bindings all the while. Now this is not just wasteful its rather bad from a compatibility point of view since MSXML seems to treat an explicit binding of this prefix as an error! If you don't believe me try viewing https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/attachment/12371800/boundxmlprefix.xml in IE.

Needless to say we're keen on getting this fixed ASAP since its causing problems for our clients using Microsoft based tools. I've already attached a test and patch to fix the bug, so I'd appreciate it if somebody could have a look. Its literally a one line fix.

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XALANJ-2409

Cheers,

Chris Simmons.
