Have you done this? // NS_MYMSG = "http://www.acme.com/namespaces/mymessage";; // NS_XMLNS="http://www.w3.org/2000/xmlns/";; Element foo = doc.createElementNS(NS_MYMSG, "msg:header"); foo.setAttributeNS(NS_XMLNS, "xmlns:msg", NS_MYMSG); I *believe* that the new DOM3 stuff has a "normalize" method which will figure out where xmlns:... declarations should be inserted into the doc, but DOM2 doesn't; you need to add the xmlns declarations manually in the appropriate places (well, at least I have found this necessary).
