This is an archived snapshot of W3C's public bugzilla bug tracker, decommissioned in April 2019. Please see the home page for more details.
Test comp-elem-bad-name-1 expects XQDY0096 (the node-name of constructed element uses the prefix xmlns). An implementation might not define the prefix "xmlns" in the statically known namespaces so I think it is OK to also raise XQDY0074 (name cannot be converted to an expanded QName).
Hi Josh, in several implementation that I have tested, this is indeed the case, so I think you probably have a legitimate point. Unless prompted otherwise Iim enclined to make the change you have suggested.
Transferring this bug to QT3. Also adding the additional error code to close this bug.
Please report to bug 22341
This bug has been resolved for QT3 several weeks ago
