[jdom-interest] Limitations wrt XPath

[Leibundguth, Jonathon]

I'm having problems with namespaces:  currently I'm working on a project
where
I read a document in with the SAXBuilder using validation, add a child to
it, then
output the results using an XMLOutputter.  My namespace prefix is "dh" and
the URI is
"http://www.doghouse.com", so in my input file my root element has an
attribute of

	xmlns:dh="http://www.doghouse.com"

I use the namespace class with the element that I add to this document.
However, by the time
I output the result, JDOM has stripped the "dh" off of the namespace
attribute so it reads

	xmlns="http://www.doghouse.com"

this causes the XMLOutputter to fail with a JDOMException.  Has anyone seen
this problem?

Thanks!!
