Namespaces and IE5b2

[john.markor@xxxxxxxxxxxx]

Has anyone tried using namespaces with IE5b2 yet?

My XML DTD has the following ATTLIST for the html tag (%URI; is defined
earlier as CDATA per the RFC...)

 <!ATTLIST html
   %i18n;
   xmlns       %URI;          #REQUIRED

Microsoft says the following are valid values for this tag....
-----------------------------------------------------------
Possible Values  sNamespace	Required. Specifies a namespace that is then
                              used as a prefix to custom tags in a document.
	              sUrn         Optional. Specifies a URN string that uniquely
                              identifies the namespace.
------------------------------------------------------------

So, in theory, the attribute list is correct.  Yet when I try and parse the
tag, I get an error that states that:

   "Attribute 'xmlns:' must be a #FIXED attribute. ....."

What am I doing wrong, or is this an error in IE5b2?
