My mailer munged the verbatim HTML tags. Here it is again:

The behavior looks for all tags that are prefixed with the "m" namespace, because that is what I instruct it to do in order to distinguish it from html markup.
I thought it was required for the plugin to identify which elements that it is responsible for.
For the sake of succinctness in the original post, I left out the wrapping tag that I generated in root-matching template that looked like
<result xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns:m="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML">...</result>
Doesn't this satisfy the namespace definition?
I want most of the output in the default namespace (for traditional html rendering) and small portions of it in the "m" namespace which is mapped to "http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML".

Presumably you want the result to be well-formed XML, in which case the "m" namespace must be declared? If not (and perhaps anyway), your best bet is to do a global replace using a text editor.
This is dynamic input from an html page component. I'm basically using a Java-based MathML editor to let the user construct a formula.

Giving the elements a prefix of "m" is cosmetic.
I thought it was required for the plugin to identify which elements that it is responsible for.
The key question is what namespace you want the elements in. You haven't bound "m" to any namespace. The spec says "the QName is expanded into an expanded-name (ie., a namespace-uri/local-name pair) using the namespace declarations in effect for the xsl:element element". It doesn't actually say what happens if the prefix isn't in scope. Interestingly, this omission is still present in the XSLT 2.0 draft. My interpretation has always been that it is an error, but your XSLT processor seems to interpret it differently, or to attempt a recovery action. > > This is the result using MSXSL4.0: > <m:math xmlns=""> > <m:apply xmlns=""> > <m:power xmlns="" /> > <ci>x</ci> > <cn>2</cn> > </m:apply> > </m:math>
This isn't well-formed XML, so I don't think any XSLT processor should produce this result. Raise a bug report.
For the sake of succinctness in the original post, I left out the wrapping tag that I generated in root-matching template that looked like

I want most of the output in the default namespace (for traditional html rendering) and small portions of it in the "m" namespace which is mapped to "http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML".
