RE: [xsl] xmlns=""

Your root template is carefully outputting the html, head, and body
elements in the XHTML namespace, and I suspect the other template rules
are outputting the other elements in the null namespace. So Saxon has to
output the namespace undeclaration xmlns="" to prevent them inheriting
the XHTML namespace.

It would be simplest to move the declaration of the XHTML namespace from
your root xsl:template to the xsl:stylesheet element.
