I'm sorry, you'll have to be much more specific. If your code isn't doing what you expect, then show us the code, tell us what output you expected, and tell us what output it is producing. Then we can tell you where you went wrong.

this is my code : Element root = doc.createElement("Mpeg7"); root.setAttribute("xmlns", "urn:mpeg:mpeg7:schema:2001"); root.setAttribute("xmlns:xsi", "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"); root.setAttribute("xmlns:mpeg7", "urn:mpeg:mpeg7:schema:2001"); root.setAttribute("xsi:schemaLocation", "urn:mpeg:mpeg7:schema:2001 Mpeg7-2001.xsd"); doc.appendChild(root); this write the file: Transformer tFormer = TransformerFactory.newInstance().newTransformer(); tFormer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.METHOD, "xml"); doc.normalize(); Source sourceMPEG7 = new DOMSource(doc); Result result = new StreamResult(outfile); tFormer.transform(sourceMPEG7, result); (outfile is my output file xml; i don't report for semplicity the declaration of DocumentBuilderFactory and so on). This code works well if i don't import saxon libraires in my project, but if i import these libraries (and note that i don't call saxon function in my code), the application doesn't write the first namespace (xmlns", "urn:mpeg:mpeg7:schema:2001) and i have to write this. How can i do? maybe i have to set some parameter to use this namespace? thank you for your answers

Could you confirm which Saxon version you are using, please? (Generally, I think that it's best to use createElementNS() when creating namespaced elements. But the way you are doing it ought to work.)

I have filed a bug at https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=2822068&group_id=29872&atid=397617, and a patch is in Subversion. Generally I would recommend avoiding the old "non-namespace-aware" methods in DOM: use createElementNS() rather than createElement() (if you have to use DOM at all...). Saxon tries to handle a DOM that was constructed using these methods (at considerable cost in performance, incidentally) but they are generally fragile.

Thank you, i solved it using the createElementNS() for root and it seems work fine. thank you very much
