xmlns attribute with a prefix


The important thing to remember is that if you
get the element and attribute
names right, the namespace declarations will
look after themselves (or
rather, the XSLT processor will look after them).
So to generate an xsi:schemaLocation attribute you do this:

<xsl:attribute
name="xsi:schemaLocation"
namespace="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";>...</xsl:attribute>

and
the xmlns:xsi declaration will appear automatically.
