Hi Dave,

Awaiting your reply.
Another query: When I call writeToString() method of the DOMDocument and pass a DOMNode to the function, the resulting string gives the string equivalent of the DOM node, but it also gives the namespaces information as xmlns attribute. This I want to avoid. Please tell me how to do that. 
I am posting it here, as I did not find any other user group that I can post there; I did not get the URL to subscibe to the xerces user list as well.

Thanks in advance.

Indrajit

And still you did not show us the stylesheet, so I have no idea what might 
be going on.  Also, I have no idea why using the Xerces-C wrapper would 
result in different behavior.  It could be a bug in the Xalan-C wrapper 
classes, or it could be a bug in your code.  I just don't have enough 
information to answer your question.

You should subscribe to the Xerces-C user mailing list:

http://xml.apache.org/mail.html#xerces-c-user

However, what you want do do is not possible using any standard XML 
serializer, since the namespace information is an intrinsic part of the 
document.
