There is no common namespace prefix for DocBook because there is no namespace *name* for DocBook. It is the namespace name (URI reference) that is the important part of a namespace declaration. A prefix is arbitrary, and may even be absent if DocBook is the default namespace. See this message about why there is no DocBook namespace: http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/docbook/200205/msg00038.html Bob Stayton 400 Encinal Street Publications Architect Santa Cruz, CA 95060 Technical Publications voice: (831) 427-7796 The SCO Group fax: (831) 429-1887 email: bobs@sco.com
