The XHTML DTD declares a default namespace, in the guise of a defaulted attribute value for the <html> element. Not a nice thing to do, because its effect is to put all the unprefixed elements in your source document into a namespace. This means they will not match unprefixed names used as match patterns in your stylesheet.
