Hi all,

does anybody know how to generate an attribute for the default namespace
like:
xmlns="http://www.xxx.com/....."

I have tried something like this:
myWriter.WriteAttributeString("xmlns", http://www.xxx.com/....)
I get the message:

"Das Präfix '' kann nicht von '' in 'http://www.ixxx.com/....'innerhalb
desselben Startelementtags neu definiert werden."

Thanks for any help

Usually you do create such namespace declarations yourself, rather you
write the elements in the correct namespace and then the serializer
automatically outputs the namespace declaration itself e.g. this code

       const string ns = "http://example.com/2007/ns1";
       using (XmlWriter writer = XmlWriter.Create(Console.Out))
       {
         writer.WriteStartElement("root", ns);
         writer.WriteElementString("foo", ns, "example");
         writer.WriteElementString("bar", ns, "example 2");
         writer.WriteEndElement();
       }

generates this XML:
<root xmlns="http://example.com/2007/ns1"><foo>example</foo><bar>example
2</bar></root>

So make sure you write out elements in the namespace they belong to,
that way you will get namespace declarations generated.

Thanks, but there are still more problems to solve...
