Use xsi:schemaLocation - the namespace URI is *not* the location of a schema; it's just a name, to say who defined the format.

You are creating a title element in the default namespace of your XSLT document. This is probably no namespace, so you are creating a title element that's not in any namespace.

You need either to use <foo:title>, where foo is bound to the namespace URI you want to use, or put xmlns="your URI here" on the xsl:stylesheet element.
