XOM API for Processing XML with Java

[Andrew Thompson <lordpixel AT mac.com>]

In answer to your question from the other mail, I thought I was using  
Xalan 2.6, but I was using the JDK build in version. Now I'm definitely  
using Xalan 2.6 - confirmed by setting -verbose:class.

It doesn't make any difference though. the xml:base attributes are  
still stripped and the xml:lang still goes through.

If I enter that as written, I get:

If I modify the line to look like this

>         " xmlns:xi=\"http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude\""; +

Then it runs but it doesn't work. xmlns:xi is still output to the  
result document.

Was that a typo in your email?
