Removal of unwanted namespace declarations Surf Skate Snow Surfing Skateboard

Attribute exclude-result-prefixesCan be used on any element to prevent output of unwanted namespace declarations. Values of this attribute may be either space separated list of unwanted namespaces to be excluded or "#all" which removes all namespaces which are not needed.

Please note that if two prefixes are used for the same namespace, specification of one prefix in exclude-result-prefixes automatically removes others (in Surf prefixes are not important, namespaces are).

While namespace handling may seem perplexing, in real life scenario it is usually sufficient to set exclude-result-prefixes on xsl:stylesheet element as authors of the stylesheets usually prefer to have unneeded namespace declarations removed everywhere.
