I have a typed dataset that I'm returning from a webservice which has the 
xmlns="SomeURI" attribute defined

My CLASSIC ASP front end developer can't get her xsl to work with that 
namespace declaration so I'm trying to get rid of it.  The closest I can get 
is xmlns="" and I can do that a hundered different ways.

Does anyone know how to get rid of it all together?

=======================

if it helps, here are the various things I've tried

    Private Function GetXMLFromDataset() As System.Xml.XmlDocument
        Dim _xml As New System.Xml.XmlDocument
        _xml.LoadXml(_DALSearchData.GetXml)

        '_xml.DocumentElement.Attributes.RemoveNamedItem("xmlns")

        '_xml.DocumentElement.RemoveAttribute("xmlns")

        '_xml.Attributes.RemoveNamedItem("xmlns")

        'Dim _XMLAttributes As System.Xml.XmlAttributeCollection
        '_XMLAttributes = _xml.XmlAttributeCollection
        '_XMLAttributes.RemoveNamedItem("xmlns")

        'Dim _DocElement As System.Xml.XmlElement = _xml.DocumentElement
        'Dim _Attributes As System.Xml.XmlAttributeCollection = 
_DocElement.Attributes
        '_Attributes(0).RemoveAll()

        'If _xml.DocumentElement.NamespaceURI.Length > 0 Then
        '    _xml.DocumentElement.Attributes.ItemOf(0).RemoveAll()
        'End If

        'If _xml.DocumentElement.NamespaceURI.Length > 0 Then
        '    _xml.DocumentElement.SetAttribute("xmlns", Nothing)
        'End If

        Return _xml
    End Function
