I am doing good things by subclassing NodeFactory so far. If it works, I 
am very happy.

One question for you:

in finishMaking Element() I have:


       Nodes nds = new Nodes();
       Element basetag = new Element("base");
       Attribute bt_attr = new Attribute("href",url);
       basetag.addAttribute(bt_attr);
       nds.append(basetag);
       nds.append(element);
       return nds;

this produces:

<base xmlns="" href="http://www.passani.it/i.html"; />

How doI get rid of the xmlns="" string?

Thanks
