I have an XML that looks has a DTD that I transform with an identity template.
Source XML:

when I transform it, all elements get extended with attributes like

Is there a way to supress this behaviour in the stylesheet?
Not using standard XSLT.
I am using Saxon 9b and XSLT 2.0.
If i remove the DTD from the source, it won't to that (of course).
However I don't want to do this.
There is no distinction in the XPath data model between specified and
defaulted attributes, so there is no way from the model of you
knowing which ones were "added" by the processor when inspecting the DTD.
Of course you could specialize every element looking for known
defaulted values for every attribute, but then you wouldn't be able
to distinguish a specified attribute of a defaulted value.
I hope this helps, though I understand it doesn't give you what you want.
